Mornington Crescent!

[Sussex Nomad]

I'm am no connoisseur of this rather marvellous gentleman's game, however I did physically get onto Mornington Crescent station tonight and disembarked at Chalk Farm... am I the winner for actually physically being there?

If not I shall play Larry Grayson's limp wristed 1973 move... Brixton

Ah-ha, it's 2/2/12, which courtesy of the David Shepherd, Nelson Ruling, means we can resurrect any old game for immediate continuation.

So, picking up this old one, hmmmmmm, Brixton, tricky that, I see why no-one came back on that move.

Hang on, I think I can get away with a sneaky .....

Balham.

Almost gave it to me on a plate there, but I see what you did there, so I will play it cautious for now:

Tooting Broadway

 

[Surrey_Albion]

East Ham, Because it has Ham in the name

 

[catfish]

I'm going to try Redknapp's manouvre:

Bank

 

[Titanic]

East Ham, Because it has Ham in the name

Oh no, not that old saw!

Turnham Green.

You play like a seasoned veteran sir, but have some of this:

Olympia.

 

[narly101]

Simple sunny afternoon buffer reverse.

Earls Court

 

[Titanic]

Simple sunny afternoon buffer reverse.

Earls Court

What a silly shunt...

Barons Court

A-ha, with East Ham having been played, I can play the rhyming slang variant for added difficulty, and go;

Gareth Bale - Tottenham Hale.

 

[Pot noodles for everyone]

Mornington Crescent. I win. Again.

This shit game is f***ing easy. Is it only tricky if you are trying to be Willy Rushton, Tim Brooke-Taylor or Graeme Garden?

No, you can't play Mornington Crescent from Tottenham Hale, not since the infamous Moscow match of 1994, and the Яйца amendment that happened at the hastily arranged International conference that followed.

Yes I can. That rule only applies if you're a tedious smug bore who likes chortling as his own jokes.

As I say, I win. Pint of stinky real ale for me to celebrate winning this crock of shit I think.

Double post.
But it was a damn good post, so maybe worthy of it!
