This thread is getting like a version of 'I haven't a clue'. Can we play Mornington Crescent across the GWR▸ network?
It is Christmas, the season of goodwill and beer, and a time when parlour games are still played by some of the people who still have a parlour, plus some friends and/or relatives. So here goes: Luxulyan. (Note to participants: I haven't thought of a purpose for this yet, nor any rules other than the Tudor Court Rules don't apply anywhere west of Ealing, and you can't be offside with an Advance Single ticket, unless you are half of a "Two Together" card. The winner will become obvious, and indeed may be already.) |

Well sorry to be so obvious, but Bodmin Parkway.

Blimey, I wasn't expecting that so early in the game! Tricky. St Andrews Road. |

I'll let that go, assuming you went via Henbury...

Look, if you're not going to take this seriously, it could end up looking pointless. I think I can traverse to Narberth as this is Tudor Court?
You've done this before, haven't you? I can tell! I'll let that go, assuming you went via Henbury...
Yes, very good call. Paul Pogba would be proud of that one. |

Before the war, my father would have wheeled out his trusty Pensford Surprise at this point... but sadly I can do no better than Hopton Heath!

Thought we were doing Great Western? But good call otherwise. |

Good grief, did I say Hopton Heath? I must have had a dewy-eyed aberration; of course I meant to say Leominster...
