You are right, it is my move. The taxi taking me to Terminal 5 will be 
here soon.

Double six takes me past GO (I collect 236.82 Euros) and land on the 
Community Chest, where I find out it is my birthday. I collect £20 from 
each of you and throw again.
Liverpool Street Station, which I buy.

Aha. I see what you're trying to do.

I raise you £5 12s 4d and land on a ladder which takes me to square 24.

Finchley Central

It's probably a good thing I don't have access to that kind of 
technology. ;)

While Stephen's tube is stuck between stations (probably owing to that 
black knight's move dropping the queen's pawn on the tracks, causing a 
shutdown), I'm going to play a the "play 4" rule card, and then follow 
that with playing the Time Traveler, Holographic Projector, and 
Expendable Crewman keepers before my train arrives at Victoria.

You are not kidding. The backlash of that vortex from the black knight's move,
has knocked me along the diagonal, put me in Huff and I ended up in Brussels -
Zaventem luchthaven. So I move to Diegem even if only to recuperate. Which means
that being in Huff I must endure random losses of turn.

I have two pairs.

I thought we'd agreed to go Dutch.

I'm thinking of giving Samantha a go but realise that that might allow 
Sven to expose his diagonal. So, just to give Jim a chance of a new 
opening ...
