Brixton - I think I can do that!
Yes, but if you had recently flushed a downstairs toilet, that move would have been void.
Very clever move that, only allows one option, that being Liverpool St.

The only lateral move after that would be Debden...sorry....Theydon Bois
Oh dear, I think we've broken the 5th commandment of MC. I think the only waqy to salvage it, would be to move to Ruislip Gardens, but that would then be a breach of Rule 187.97 (page 75, paragraph 4, subsection 3.5, clause B)
Can anyone suggest a legal move, or else this is checkmate...
