Stopping off for a scratch in flealess East Finchley.
Thy Kingston come,
Thy Wimbledon[sorry SNS]
In Erith as it is in heaven.
Give us this Bray in Maidenhead,
and forgive us our bypasses
I see others are sad enough to know The Bus Inspectors Prayer.
as we forgive them that bypass against us
lead us into Thames Ditton,
continuing the flow...
***Squorrox!*** the second line is meant to read, "Lead us NOT into Thames Ditton... damned keyboard never could spoil proper.
but deliver us from Perivale
[JLE] that line should be "but deliver us from Ealing." which is followed by
For thine is the Kingston,
the Purley and the Crawley.
For Iver and Iver, Crouch End.
Here endith the first lesson...
Running in reverse through Chatham and working may way to Neasden and getting a shinny pink and green Drogna on the way.
Are we playing "Weakest Link" variant [Herr Bratsche]?.....Shepherd's Bush, just near the Safeway
Pimlico, snadge! declared.
Shepherd's Bush, the one not near Safeway's...
Safeway's, the one near an item of shrubbery belonging to a herdsman.
Queensway.
Ongar with a quick stop for a brew and a change of pants!
Kingsway, trumping Puckoon.
Hmmm... [LotUS] I'll see your Kingsway, and raise you Kingsbury.
A foul!....Scorer, a point away from [Puckoon]. Ummm....Neasdon, but cautiously and maybe slendiferentially.
Foul denied. Point deducted instead from Little Jim for incorrect challenge. The move to Neasden, however, stands (although being misspelt) and is strategically sound, and forces me to Colliers Wood.
Re-entering the arena with a 'safe' Victoria.
That forces a Boardmans round for the next six (at least) - Neas Up.
Bowditch, straddling.
Shorechurch, leaping... and why not?
[puckoon] Because of the pond there maybe? Appears you may have taken a dive there my friend....Mortlake for the brewery, and to move [Herr Bratsche] off centre.
A quick trip home, leaving from Heathrow Terminal 1.
A quick reversing manouver via Kings Cross picking up one aquamarine podume on the way....
Paying a veridian token for a quick stop at Temple.
[Little Jim, re. Puckoon] He's fallen in the water!!

Knightsbridge...

Clapham Common / Finchley Road, for the hell of it.
Bakerloo and stopping for tea (Assam) and biccies...parp!!
A holding measure Dollis Hill.
Absolute Elsewhere to Putney Bridge in a single bound.
Highbury, obviously, though sadly.
Recentring on Oxford Circus.
Slightly off centre at Kennington
why does the scrabble server keep breaking down. ihave withdrawal symptoms
Singing sea shanties and being all nautical whilst pausing at Cutty Sark
This is very hard work ... Ruislip Gardens
Crossharbour & London Arena. Safe.
bank
Homerton.
Arkansas. For obvious reasons.
Finsbury Park, with fond memories of seeing the Grateful Dead at the Rainbow.
[Little Jim] There not that obvious. Oh errm Mill Hill Park and be damned.
Moorgate and watch those damn buffers....
Ongar and a quick slip into reverse!
Alperton and sending an LV spike down the Picadilly.
Wrong way, I'm afraid. Sending it *up* the Piccadilly would have made more sense, but as things stand, the very first person your spike hits will be your own good self after it passes around the Heathrow loop.

Of course, this could have been your intention, but it seems unlikely from where I'm sitting. Meanwhile, Eastcote.

Boston Manor, dissipating that spike.
Millwall Junction
Ipswich (yehyehyeh!)
Pall Mall neatly spiking [JLE]! I know now why [LotUS] went that way...
I think I do too. Goodman's Manouvre places me (oddly) in Battersea Rise.
I have but one word for you... Greenwich Park
Err... [YOGF] that's two words... My response is Welsh Harp.
Not a common move, but Preston Road and be damned I say.
Walthamstow Central
Kew Gardens
Hatton Cross (and Richmond furious :))
Belsize Park, sideways. [ZK] HA!
Archway. Not too much sauce
[JLE] Isn't it nice when you can get other people to do your work for you ;) [LJ] Thank you very much.

Now, careful use of the Holtz-Friedel Platform Twist allows me to play a rather powerful Angel. That'll be two silver podumes or four purple tokens from everyone please.
