Each Move Must Consist Of Precisely Eight Words
help
Just as it says on the tin. What happens in the game may be debated in the game: perhaps it'll be a conversation, perhaps a word-limited reprise of various games we play, or whatever.

They have won three out of three games.
I know someone with a Swindon Town tattoo!
As a conversation stopper, that takes the biscuit.
Woah yeah got dem inked up Swindon blues
I went round the magic roundabout in Swindon.
There's a similarly loony one in Hemel Hempstead
But those in Telford really are the worst.
Roundabouts with traffic lights are definitely the worst.
Swindon has its fair share of those too.
There's nowhere quite like Milton Keynes for roundabouts.
I like the ones with lights - they're easier.
I like small roundabouts you can see across.
The Magic Roundabout had an empty seat. Whose?
Could be Dougal. He's gone for his tea.
The Magic Roundabout doesn't yet have traffic lights.
Dougal was definitely gone for something or other.
Have you seen any magic round about here?
I think I saw some in the fridge.
My fridge is not a time travel machine.
Just as well - the Ice Age is past.
The weather is getting me down right now.
We get weather every day - rise above it.
But that would take you into the stratosphere.
I'd find the air too thin up there.
That is what they want you to think.
In this case, for once, they are right.
Back down to earth with a bump then.
That would be some bump, and possibly fatal.
OK then, just kill off some old games
Shall we begin with this one?...
[Raak] I think you'll find that's only six.
I arrived home yesterday. Heathrow's still no better.
No, I certainly wouldn't want to live there.
I'm not sure they would let you either.
Gatwick is just as bad, so they say.
[Tuj] Should I have said the final words?
Don't know - looks like we're talking about airports.
I've been on holiday, but I'm back now.
Go anywhere nice? Go through any nice airports?
Switzerland, to stay with the in-laws. London City.
My ex-in-laws live in Birmingham; not so exotic.
I don't have in-laws, ex, current or otherwise.
I have parents, not ex, current, but otherwise.
Penelope, would you like in-laws or ex-in-laws, best?
No idea, Software, having no eperience of either.
Current location: University Marine Biology Station - workload high
Current location: bedroom. Workload: Nil. Current activity: Amusement. That's more like it.
Location: in front of screen. Bored. Bored. Bored.
...that's been summer. Back to uni soon, thankfully.
Penelope, you don't know how lucky you are.
[Kim] London City Aiport staff are rather dim.
[Phil] I think you missed an r out.
Software, swings and roundabouts, mate. Solitary dotage beckons.
[Botherer] Eight words spent to tell me that?
[Phil] Eight words spent on that reply? [oblig.]
Orthographic rigour must be our sine qua non.
Remaining single is much cheaper than divorce, Pen.
But two can live more cheaply than one.
And have a lot more fun, right Raak?
It's not only married people who have fun.
Certainly, single people can have excellent fun too.
I've been single ever since I was young!
Oddly, I'm not really sure if I'm single.
(nights) Ask at your local Citizens' Advice Bureau.
Once married one can never be single again.
I am. Once married, now I am divorced.
But divorced is not the same as single.
It is if you've no kids, otherwise not.
Even with no kids it still costs you.
