I will leave you in Katyjay's capable hands with


New Cross Gate
superpyroman
You're just ganging up on me now aren't you?

Embankment
katyjay
A little too obvious really.

Never mind, we will try the clockwise approach.

Mill Hill East
superpyroman
Very well...

Knightsbridge

That should stop you for a while.
Phil Dixon
You obviously have not come across the Albalenshavinsky Hypothesis?


Ealing Common
katyjay
I never indulge in hypotheses I can't spell.

Tottenham Court Road

Mill Hill east

The old Gregory maneuver

No, the Gregory would have taken you to High Barnet.

Never mind, since you've gone back to Mill Hill East, I'll go for Covent Garden.
superpyroman
And with you occupied there I can take a clear path to Mornington Crescent. It leads me to belive that you don't know what the old Gregory maneuver is

I'll start at Royal Victoria

Car Expert
superpyroman
A good solid start.

Picadilly Circus
Car Expert
Tower Hill

Car Expert
superpyroman
An undeniable vantage point there CE. Stations in that area are an excellent asset. I'll have to cut my losses and go to Sloane Square
Car Expert
Victoria

Car Expert
superpyroman
A mistake there. I can now go straight to Knightsbridge
Car Expert
In that case, I'll have to head off up to Green Park

Car Expert
superpyroman
You'll have to do better than that.

Mornington Crescent


Ha I have been watching on the sidelines for someone to make such an obvious blunder, I realised at Arsenal I had it in the bag!!!
Oddball
Bah! Nicely bagged, GI. Your turn to start.
superpyroman
I was all set up to win, then went away to make a move in go and someone else had won. sad.gif
Good Intentions
Sorry superpyroman, but alls fair in love and the crescent! wink.gif

This time I will start with,


Latimer Road
superpyroman
but that lets me go straight to Embankment
Car Expert
I'm going to go east west to Eastcote.

Car Expert
Maizie
For an E-alliteration, I shall step forth with:

Epping
Car Expert
And I'll continue the E theme with Edgware

Bunch of amateurs............








East Ham
Oddball
St James' Park
SueHM
See what I mean?


Elm Park

Oddball
What's wrong with SJP?

MORNINGTON CRESCENT
SueHM
SJP is a dual line station - it should never be played after a District Line station, the rules are very clear on that point.

Your opening..
