Well, I made my move to the Seattle Ferry Terminal, so it must be
Stephen's turn. He did try to delay the game by claiming it was my turn,
though, so I think that puts him in Huff and takes you out - assuming
we're still playing Stovold's 47th variation.

In that case it is John's move. If he can put his glass down to type.

passport.

It's not necessarily an Elgar theme (just a musical connection) as I
shall now demonstrate:

Well, since it's a musical theme, and on Saturday we heard the world
premiere of a piece of music by Sergey Prokofiev's grandson - who's based
in London (but during the concert, was sitting about 30 feet from us),
Gabriel's symphony was titled "When the City Rules", and was intended as
a musical interpretation of life in a large city - Seattle, London, or
wherever (it was a commission by the Seattle Symphony).
There aren't any stations in common between the London tube map and Link
light rail, but there is a wormhole between Othello Station and Stratford-
upon-Avon, so that's my move. :)
