    tilams-apologies. I've just seen your post, but unless you are prepared to conform, I'm afraid that Square is not allowed. You know full well that nothing hypotenuse-related is permitted in non-oyster months and this is NOT a pre-season friendly[despite your bucket and spade.]

    Sorry, but SWMBO just spoked.

    Oh no....!
    tilams, YOU are in. I am OUT. Please accept my ombles etc.

    Gut-wrenching, but must 'fess up - contravention of Mornington Croissant obligations

    The game still follows the Standard English Ancient and Modern Rules with a few typically French modifications. Chalk Farm or Shepherds Bush gain the player a 3 move subsidy, and as you’d expect the mention of any main-line station will cause the succeeding player to miss a turn, or go on strike.


    ... so that's it for me unless a new round starts ce soir.

    [I feel such a fool, oldest trap in the rule-book and I walk right in. No wonder the Sun-reading Angles all want out of Yurp.]

    Oh, well - enjoy. Back tonight.
    [By the way, is it Sven or Samantha blowing the whistle today?]

    Ditto CCP, haven't got a clue what's going on, thought I'd logged in to the wrong forum this morning. I'll go and lay down in a darkened room and hope normal service is resumed when I get back with my 5 ;)

    5 for today (Tuesday) so far.

    1) Not a bad sleep.

    2) Bigger son off to school happily.

    3) Took smaller son to his favourite treat - jet washing the car. :-) I shut myself inside and cleared all the rubbish into a carrier bag. He stood outside jet washing, whistling and occasionally singing very loudly!

    4) Got the stove going well.

    5) Looking forward to Holby City later.

    In other news - smaller son is starting at the new school tomorrow! Hoorah!
