Well it certainly seems to be the favourite game.
Here goes Golders Green

Well I'm actually in Liverpool and therefore Streets ahead. Boom boom!!

I cheated. I'm just outside Liverpool. I'll go back to Cockfosters and take my punishment.
i'mjustnotcutout for this game. My participles had drooped long ago and Cockfosters is all that's between me and ruination. I believe the 'Rui' were an old american indigenous tribe wiped out by a foreign virus. Nothing really changes!
Exits, stage left, pursued by the same damn bear!!

I'm torn it could be Clapham South, Clapham North or Clapham Common.

I am opting for Tooting Bec due to a points failure at Balham

I'm so glad you thought of me, Glyn. You at least knew I'd find this funny

Don`t know London very well how about the Strand. Glad to hear we have radio 4 fans on board.

Hello Smile. Not only am I a Radio4 fan, but tomorrow evening we're going to spend a couple of hours with Linda Smith. We'll be two of about 300 in the audience for her one woman show. My wife and I think Linda is very funny. Review to follow.
Byron 'sends his regards'.

How did it go Byron Picadilly Circus?

Byron · Post by **Byron** » Fri Jun 20, 2003 12:23 am

Hello smile.
I got a phone call from the theatre to say that Linda Smith wasn't able to appear because of illness. When I went to collect my refund, I was told that Linda had not been well and now her husband, who drives her to all of her shows, was also ill.
We were disappointed but that is one of the factors of live theatre.
I don't know when she can appear here again, but I hope she and her husband have recovered and we can see her on another occasion.
It must have cost her a few pounds to pay the theatre for the cancelled show though. Yet another factor of live theatre. Oh well.
We are now hoping that Pavarotti doesn't pull out of the Eistedfford at Llangollen in July. We've paid for that and he has a habit these days of not appearing. So its fingers crossed here.

smile. Guess what? We have been told that Pavarotti has cancelled his performance and once again we await the refund of our ticket money. I obviously didn't cross enough fingers. sniff, sniff.

Well Byron perhaps you will have better luck with the lottery. The part of Wales you are going to is beautiful and the worst road in the world near by I am terrified of Horse shoe pass.

Follow this, if you can, Dagenham Heathway!

Ha! I was wondering when someone would finally come up with that one! The long-thought indomitable Dagenham! However, there's still ONE left that can do it ~ now I finally claim victory ~ Mornington Crescent!!!

Victory at last!!! Victory at last!!! On Independence Day, as well ~ on a game dedicated to me. How perfect!!!

To all the rest ~ you played a wonderful game!!!

Now, I'll just bask in my glory and enjoy the Fourth........until we play again!

That is amazing Lizzy. I think you have surpassed yourself making that move. I didn't think that anyone would see it. You should feel proud, and I am proud that it is an American citizen that has won this British game, but truly we are allies and I know that Tony and George W. would also feel immensely proud on this day. In fact I will be amazed if this doesn't make the BBC World Service. Send me your address and I will forward the prize of a map of London undergroud to you. Once again congratulations!
