Anyone fancy a game of Mornington Crescent?

Trondheim rules, but with the 1976 Bovington paradox, which I think we'll find adds quite a bit of excitement to the game!

I'll go first. I'm going to play, hmm: Colindale

Oh. Oh dear. I think you'll find that NHG has been played, and I'm almost sure that under the Bovington paradox you're only allowed to play NHG twice whilst in a state of quantum superposition.

I'm really not sure how to resolve this. Could we perhaps put you in a box with some caesium for a while? Or (and failing the availability of radioactive materials) perhaps rock, paper, scissors?

Thuogh I am willing to be corrected on this -- I've checked the rules but the Bovington paradox has always been ... tricky.

How embarrassing!

Sadly, I think the latter Trondheim amendment 958.678c bans the use of caesium in this case because of the fallout from the 1981 Whaling Boat Clause.

One way round it of course is for me to perform an inverse three-point side step, neatly moving me to Lambeth North.

A superb move! I do love a sharply-executed three-point side step.

Hmm. I think a reverse-oblique Towel Shift (Appendix 42 of the "Heart of Gold" Charter, written in - well, no one really knows, but nevermind) may be permissible here, to Elephant and Castle.
