help
We will play standard rules on a map where the names have been replaced with random english words. (eg. Goodge Street is now Hedge). To make things easy we will use the example map on page 23 of the 1957 MC annual.

Being ever more cryptic, move to ADSL.
I'm blocked in Constipation
Righty-ho. Time to upliven things. I shall execute a reverse shunt to The Trocadero and initiate a Preposition Cascade
Rats. That forces me to At.
*sigh* Betwixt
reversing antique preposition flows with Unbeknownst
oooh - a percentage of consonants almost high enough to qualify that word as Welsh!
Rhythm, reinforcing consonant curdle
Sequoia, attempting to release the vowels.
Aaaaaaaargh!
Darn! that's on Circle line. I'll have to play Move and hope to stay out of nip
I think Who's Harry? neatly puts you in nip. Whoopsy!
No more of this messing about. Let's open the board a bit with 14,384,443.23 Years, and a release of the gelatinous blob on Aaaaaaaargh!.
Moist
[Darren] nah - let's not.
Hector
Wibble invoking madness.
Hurdy-gurdy
Parsnip
*tinkle*
Also in Trap.
Hmmm, nothing for it then. Diamond blocking Mine.
Deckchair
splinging to toolbox hah!
Oddly enough, I can now play Bank.
In which case I can steeple to Plectrum.
And a quick straddle to Jet Set Willy leaves LotUS in stilk.
Then I shall move to Tea which leaves me only in silk - and that's a lot easier to get of.
...get out of.
Not if trumped by Clotted Cream...

Prune, reunifying.
Guest, for now.
Dunks, with double absorbtion
Jelly, denying LotUS's grey token.
Fleur-de-lys

Which, since the Players soundalikes cascade seems to have been broken, allows me to play Rubidium.
Guest, out staying my welcome
Tangerine
Granny Smith, declaring fruit loop
To which, of course, the only possible answer is Grapefruit.
Staying underground with Carrot oblig.
And forcing me into Bottom double oblig.
Which lets me return neatly to Constipation
How on earth did we manage to avoid a Carrot/Grapefruit/Bottom loop? That must be a first. Anyway, Traipse depositing a leather token.
Schism
Guest with a blue token on Suitcase. [UK] Splitter!
Bottom again, sorry.
I'm escaping your devious Bottom with Lubricant. And immediately wishing I hadn't read back what I've just typed.

All hail Darren, and his ability to tye things! And what a 'gignatic' talent it is too... nnnnnnng!
Half-moon
Asymptotic again.
Pear
Still at Guest but they seem to want rid of me.
Shunt of Gusset Login to Overstayed. Main move to Homer Simpson.

Puddle closing all cupboards
which should allow me to capture Wet Wipes and declare fastidiousness
Erk! Blue-tit, claiming peanuts.
Security Blanket, wrestin Peanuts in my own direction.
Salted with green tokens on Peanuts.
Wages recieving Peanuts after much effort.
Moving peanuts to Lard - Frying invoked.
Watch it, this is getting dangerously close to Cress, and we all know what *that* means. So, a defensive Quasar.
