A daring move there, hello_cello, but I think I can counter it.

One more move and I'm there. Unless you play the 1987 amendment. We're not playing that, are we?

Think I'm stymied!

There is a Holland Park (on the Central Line next to Notting Hill Gate).

In that case, I'll step in and go to... erm... Notting Hill Gate tongue.gif

DaisyChain
Nope smile.gif
hello_cello
Oh.
I thought you had to get onto a northern line station, to get Mornington Crescent. How do you win?
