Oh no....... I'd got it all planned out. Just not quick enough. KJ your move to Bank was inspired, if you don't mind my saying so.

D'oh!!! I should've seen that one, but I was a bit boxed so I think Green Park was the only move (sorry katyjay, I just let her in there)

It requires a blend of right and left brain functioning. Would others agree?

We had a training game for Nicki a while back, but since the boards went funny I can't seem to find it. Might be useful for you to have a look at that if it's still around

Absolutely. Or any brain functioning really.

I think the Paynes edition of the map is clearer though Janexxx, particularly when it comes to playing at intermediate level and beyond.

I have my own map, covered with little notes to remind me of moves which might be could in each circumstance.

As do all of us regular players I bet. I update mine after each game if I've learnt some more good moves. I actually keep quite a few in a fat folder marked up for different variants, saves you getting caught out and (for example) getting boxed when you thought you were going for a triangulation, which can happen if you get confused which variation you are playing.

Also of course you need to be aware of the day of the week etc (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
