Ah bu##er it! Here goes:

Tottenham Hale!

This should check all moves heading North, I feel that due to the very mention of Physics and sub-atomic particles has lead me to do this.

Tottenham Hale has the upper and lower ground covered too, a station with two stations

....... Now thats tactics in motion for you............

Steinsson is a strange quark for sure, Pendy. I heard that there is a conspiracy theory that the Higgs Bosham is an elaborate hoax and also that if true, it accounts for the fact that West Sussex is in fact 90% dark matter.

Bold move Owl. with all the ground cover there aren't many options. But it has to be football ground cover so i am going to help celebrate their promotion to the Prem at...

Upton Park.

Fascinating, I had no idea about the particle physics behind the Dollis Hill move. Steinsson is a very strange quark indeed

I understand that a new sub-atomic particle, the Higgs Bosham, has been identified in West Sussex

But I'm going for the place that no-one knows exactly how to pronounce it's name

Cosham

which borders the Cosham Triangle where trains go in and some come out and some do not. All a bit spooky really

A very small sub-atomic particle has also been discovered that is excellent at cricket, the Higgs Botham! So

Oval!

Oh, I say! Well played sir.

Back on the 'Sweet FA' loop with the mighty

All Saints

Got to say, I'm surprised you allowed my Southampton Central opening move - it was well offside!

Good to see you are now on the game OwL

From All Saints, I'm going to try for the Two Towers Transfer and try

St Chad's

(that shoud have you scurrying for the rail atlas...)

Mustermark · July 10, 2012, 01:19:46 PM

Well it doesn't look offside because it is right next to King's Cross. But it isn't on my tube map so i can't see what line it is on. I think we need an adjudication on this one.

While there is indeed a St Chads in London which is not served by rail, there is another in the UK which is the name of a stop on a rail system... The 'Tower' reference is the clue...

PLD, if its the same St Chads that it near Columbia Street Market, then it is acceptable as it is within walking distance of Hoxton station.

I've just had a letter from a Mrs Trellis of North Wales, she writes:

"Dear Mr Cameron,

On holiday with Mr Trellis in Blackpool a few years back, I took part in a quiz and managed to reach the final only to lose out after what I consider to this day, to be a correct answer. The question asked "What 'C' would you associate Jeremy Clarkson with?" to which I confidently gave my answer. Not only was I told the answer was incorrect, but I was asked by the holiday rep to vacate the premises immediately. Has anyone else experienced such appalling treatment whilst holidaying with one's family?

Yours sincerely

Mrs Trellis"

No it isn't that St Chads either, but Mrs Trellis may well have boarded at St Chads during that holiday...

Pendy, you will have to inform Mrs Trellis that the very mention of Cleveleys can cause consternation with Blackpool residents. I cannot think of another C word that one would associate with Mr Clarkson that would spark such a reaction.

PLD, You don't by any chance mean St Chad's Rd Tram Stop?

If so, next move Pleasure Beach.

I will be in nid while i go on the rides and relive my childhood.

I hadn't considered it offside. I assumed you were merely wanting to play with the Parsons Regional Inclusivity Clause, so devised with the intention that those not on the London network, and for whom more provincial and parochial transportation was the norm, should not feel excluded from the game. I thought it was a nice touch for all those forum members in the far flung reaches, such as Hampshire, to feel included.

I was relieved that you didn't also play the Stovold Mainline Exclusivity Gambit.

If we are carrying on with the current phase of the game then why not Piccadilly?
