Mornington Crescent

[REGP]

Sticking to this fictional vein, did Trumpton have a station

[Mustermark]

Drat - foiled again by the dastardly Pendy

Mind you, everyone knows that TTTE was written by the Rev Awdrey who was born in Hampshire so what would he know

Indeed, which must allow me to play :

Knapford

Oh Lord, we are so offside that we have come back round and are not just opeining up teh diagonals but a 5th dimension!

Tidmouth

[Mustermark]

will someone just say  Moaningtown Croissant and bring this thread to an end....

I currently don't see a way back to the Northern Line, or I would!

[SymonC]

Sticking to this fictional vein, did Trumpton have a station

No it didn't but there was a train in Chigley!

There was a station in Postman Pat though so I'll play

Greendale

[OwL]

Only one route from Greendale, and that's to hogwarts then catching the connection back to

Kings Cross

Alighting at platform 9 3/4 thus bringing us back to London.

No off sides, normal play now resumed.

[SymonC]

Seven Sisters

[OwL]

My next move

Cheshunt

[Pengi]

A spectacular move by OwL sweeping across the landscape from East to West, recreating the Pendolo move that was first introduced to the UK in 1926 by Giuseppe Pendolino. The move is so named because the instigator is 'swinging to both sides'. But has he left his soft underbelly exposed?

[OwL]

Never! I have considered the move against the 'soft underbelly' so to consolidate my position from Cheshunt against the Famed counter 'Findley Move' (introduced by Sir Cedric Findley in 1927 to sway the overwhelming Pendolo move) I'm heading north towards Cambridge but off I get at

Audley End

[Mustermark]

Only one route from Greendale, and that's to hogwarts then catching the connection back to

Kings Cross

Alighting at platform 9 3/4 thus bringing us back to London.

No off sides, normal play now resumed.

Ha! But you decared no offsides, and Audley End is definitely offside, being as it is nowhere near the London network.

I think Owl, your soft underbelly is not only exposed, but being tickled Gently with a big ostrich feather while you are in nidd.

Cockfosters

[OwL]

Audley end tethers on the brink of London so decided by it's close proximity to Stanstead Airport (better known as LONDON Stanstead )

The ostrich feather is now parried, and the briefly exposed Navel is back under the T-shirt as I head to

Ponders End

[Pengi]

(better known as LONDON Stanstead )

if I was being nit-picky you would be heading off for a spell in Spoon, as it is London Stansted. Stanstead is on the borders of Hampshire and West Sussex! But if you went into Spoon it would still leave your underbelly exposed with this tickling by ostrich feathers which would overexcite certain contributors of this forum. So your move to Ponders End is accepted - if only for the health of our members

Anyone remember the radio series 'Ponders End'? I can just about remember some of the characters, there was that guy that worked for the National Trust, Colin Dale who had a crush on the very macho brickie Rick Mansworth who was in love with the 'lady of ill repute' Barbi Can who was having a steamy liaison with Arnos Grove the MP who was secretly dating Victoria from the railway on Mondays and Bo' Church on Wednesdays.

Heron Quays (which was a spin-off series from 'Ponder End' which sank without trace)

I'm afraid the postman has called with another sack of mail, postmarked North Wales. If it is what I think it is, I'm going to be away off the game for a while.

[Mustermark]

London Stansted my arse.  That's a "Ryanair" airport that is... They make you think you're going to London and then you find out it takes the best part of a day to get to London. Birmingham is almost the same distance. That was just good marketing... Nobody would be wanting to fly to "Stansted East Anglia" airport, unless they lived in Cambridge.

Yours,
Mr Angry of

Pimlico

[PLD]

Hmm... My passport seems to be out of date so I can only get as far as Victoria...

[EtchedPixels]

London Stansted my arse.

At least it's not Luton


Or Prestwick.. 'Glasgow Prestwick' is really pushing it. I guess calling it "God knows where in the middle of emptiness airport" wouldn't sell. The roads to it even have signposts giving only other road numbers because there is *nothing*.
