Anyone fancy a game of that all-time classic Mornington Crescent?

I suggest the Simple Version of the 1926 Standard (Abridged) rulebook, unless we have any veterans who want to play something a bit more technical?

Anyhow, I'll start us off with

White City

Hmm. I think that the five-day ruling will apply soon, allowing me another green chip to place on any Northern-line station, if no-one else takes a turn before tomorrow lunch-time.

Hurry up people!

There was a set of rules on Sparrows a while ago.

Can someone copy them or wrute a set of rules (standard without variations) for us.

I thought it was perfectly explicit that we were using the Simple Version of the 1926 Standard (Abridged). If you need me to explain those to you, there's really no hope at all.

Kensal Rise, by the way.
