Aargh - not musical stations again...

hopefully we can end that with The Monkies - Last Train to Chigwell?

Time flies by when I'm the driver of a train, speeding out of trumpton with a cargo of cocaine..


Time Flies By...

and after that it had better be Customs House

Mrs Nesbit was also regailing me with a story about meeting up with Lord Peppers, who has been stirring up trouble.  Peppers bumped into Mitt Romney at a green room reception and as a bit of a lark told him that London wasn't ready for the Olympics.  Peppers and Boris were having a good old laugh about it at the pub down the road from the Olymipics after Boris had been at Hyde Park telling the world what an arse Romney is.  Apparently Romney will believe anything.  It seems someone told him he should be president... And he believed them!  Mrs Nesbit had joined Peppers and Boris for a pint or two of the Porter at The Bow Bells.  I think she has a soft spot for Boris. She tells me he is a nice young man, and he was "so brave" when he was stuck on the zip wire.  She recommends The Bow Bells for the good beer and pub food menu.  Nearest tube stop...

Bow Road.

This Mrs Nesbit is a bit of a lush as well as a gossip.

Maybe she should try the Doodle Bar in Battersea where she can scribble her gossip on the walls

Nearest tube

I am reminded of one of her less savoury scribblings

I'm sure I saw that on scratched on the door of the toilets along with 'If you can read this, then you are sitting on what I have shat' at

Are all these moves allowed as we are only allowed one Mrs and unless Mrs trellis was put on a free tranfer that rule is being broken and whats a game without rules, thats right pointless

Mrs Trellis is on her holidays in Rhyl (which is why the postman in my area is breathing a huge sigh of relief as his trolley is not overflowing)

Good job you reminded me about rules because I'm going to use the Baseball variation where because I am making my third move on the trot (without any other moves being made) then it is 'three strikes and you're in Nidd'

Baron's Court and you are all in Nidd!

Embankment (none of you can move because you are still in Nidd)

Camden Town (you're still in Nidd but will come out after my next move)

Mornington Crescent!

[Mustermark]

Oh, I say.  Not fair.  Ref!?  Come on Ref, where were you?  Got your glasses on?

I want to see a replay.

Hmmm, it is amazing when you get to see the replay in slow motion.  All this high tech that we bring to the game these days.  In my day you were offside if the ref said so.

Fair play Pengy.  I concede my challenge.  You won that square, if not particularly fair.


Still in the Doodle Bar writing Lord Peppers' phone number under one or two of these 'requests'.

South Kensington.

[Pengi]

Actually the key moves happened when you all got distracted about the graffiti and I was able to make two consecutive moves without reply. So I checked on the rules and found that if I were to make a third consecutive move then you would all be in Nidd! A bit sneaky but just about in the spirit of the game.

I'm going to join you in the Doodle Bar (http://www.thedoodlebar.com/) for a gin and lime or two

As it ish (hic!) pretty mush equidishtant from other tube shtationsh my nexsht move ish

Shloane Shquare

Zzzzzzzzzzz

[Mustermark]

Oh dear Pengy.  That sounds like a Peppers trick to me.  Do you remember an older sleazy looking chap with fat cheeks and round glasses?  Did you wake up at his tube stop? We had best come to look for you at Westminster.

[Pengi]

Do you remember an older sleazy looking chap with fat cheeks and round glasses? 

Yes and I thought it was you!

Acton Central

Is Acton unique in the UK by having a North, South, East, West and Central station? What is so special about this place that it has five stations?

It hasn't got five stations - it's got 6: you missed Acton Town!

I guess there just so many people wanting to leave the place, and their so desperate to get out they don't care which direction they head in??

From Action Central, I'll suggest an actual 5 Station combo 'Ruslip'

Lot of people wanting to escape ?

I am wondering what the most stations per head of population is and wondering if that might be Porthmadog (Network rail, WHR/Ffestiniog Harbour Station , WHHR Station,  Minffordd shared)

Satistically beaten by the various station that actually serve no resident population at all, such as those junction stations built purely as interchanges, and those built solely to to serve special/irregular traffic such as the various race courses and the Butlins Holiday Camps.
