By jove, I just broke my red podume in surprise. Misses turn.

Well that leaves me with no choice but... Ludgate Hill and let that be a lesson to you!

Anyone mind if I just jump right in with both feet and a non-skid buffer, i'll make my play to Surrey Quays

Oh my goodness - I've been asleep. Sorry everyone, Croxley.

(Playing what seems to be my annual move in this game) - Pimlico side-swiping Salamander Pudding. One purple podume please.

Take yer' podume and off with you. That being my last purple I feel I am no longer safe on the defense in the southern regions. Whitechapel seems the only safe bet and may get me into a more balanced offensive set. As today is Little Ricky Day (Marking the arrival of Little Ricky on I Love Lucy in 1953) I believe I am entitled to three Red podumes from each of you.

[SP] Three Red you say? You're welcome - I wasn't using them anyway. Oh well, new year, new strategy. * Farkle *.

Oh dear, I'm stuck between Bank and Monument. How the hell did that happen?

Mill Hill to put it simply...

Just to see if this thing is still awake Knotty Ash.

Seven Sisters, bifurcation wild.

I'll bifurcate away then, as is my wont: Warren Street / Kilburn.

Liverpool Street / Tower Hill HA-HA! Take that. Winning is finally in my grasp.

Am I too late to join the long game...I have a 'get into St Johns Wood Free' card?

Oh my, everyone's welcome in the Long Game. While I'm here, Cannon Street / Walthamstow Central.

Well then - I'll play my 'get into St Johns Wood Free' card, and bifurcate the move, placing equally 4 red counters and 3 yellow squibs on St Johns Wood and Finchley Road. Not too bold a first move I hope?

Poplar / Swiss Cottage, obviously.

Camden Town / Seven Sisters, not so obviously.

Ahhhh! A little lateral thinking suggests the not so lateral Dollis Hill

Damn you tube station, you! Dollis Hill.

Ha ha!!! Dollis Hill *bugger*
