Moved to kick-off with a BAKER STREET reverse shuffle. Any takers?

Umm, tricky opening move there, papaoscar , let me think.

OK, going to play it safe with Edgware Road! (using the Hodgkins pass manoeuvre, obviously)

So, Phoenix, early use of Hodgkins! This denies me access to the circle line so I'm going to have to go green, using McWhirters inversion, and speed off to NOTTING HILL GATE.

Can I offer a safe pass with Bank Street?

I think DOLLIS HILL follows the Armitage guidelines.

There will be some confused GNetters!

I listen to the program but I have never quite understood that one.

LizG Sat 18-Jan-14 08:35:20

Definitely a confused GNer here! smile

Hang on, got a wild card here in my back pocket, which allows me to take a quick hop to Green Park.

Am I on the same planet? What on earth are you talking about? I can give you a run for your money re tube lines and stations.

I have no idea of the rules or strategy of this, but it sounds fun.

ninathenana Sat 18-Jan-14 10:25:59

Aah, good old google. I have discovered there are no rules smile

Call me impetuous, but..................Great Portland St. (thank heavens for Shroeders Shift, a little used but useful tactic)

Elegran Sat 18-Jan-14 12:36:17

I must find out how to play this, but I shall delay the search until I have done what must be done (shower/hair, check and submit tax return sad, return shoes that don't fit, discuss encroaching holly tree with daughter who owns long loppers)

I have already wasted happily spent enough time on GN today.

Anne58 Sat 18-Jan-14 13:05:32

We've had a letter. Guess who from?

MiceElf Sat 18-Jan-14 13:18:56

Canary Wharf. Players seem to have forgotten Rule 68 para 5 subsection 3.

Mrs T!

Anne58 Sat 18-Jan-14 13:31:02

MiceElf you, are right, thank you for putting us back on track!

Ignoring Norton's Convention, next stop Mudchute.

Riverwalk Sat 18-Jan-14 13:48:56

I think Mrs Trellis has a problem - well she is in North Wales! grin

Using Maxwell's demon . Marble Arch

Riverwalk Sat 18-Jan-14 13:59:22

This is getting hard! hmm

MiceElf Sat 18-Jan-14 13:59:39

South Kensington, using the underpass strategy.

Riverwalk Sat 18-Jan-14 14:01:33

Underhand move there Mice grin

Krebb's circle dictates the next one must be Etonian Square
