Very sorry to hear that Stephen, I was worried that at some point this
post appear. The long threads you two had together on here never really
did make much sense to me, but you both seemed to be enjoying yourselves
:-) Nice that you were there at his side.

By that I gather you you do not listen to I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue, on
the radio?

But really It was John and Jim Henderson that played it. I only got
dragged in because I have a rule book and live in Uxbridge, home of the
famous dictionary. :)

*that* much time in huff.
We might need a game in memoriam sometime early next year.

Al least I was an adult when I lost my mother to cancer... It won't be

Well, I'm not the one who forgot that the diagonals were open in that
game. ;)

True. Though we did have a few occasional players who dropped in on the
game, too. But to work well, you really need a minimum of 3, and
preferably 4.

Correct. My human AI powers deduced that to play you simply name a tube
station and insert some rambling about why you chose that station. But I
also deduced it's futile to ask about any rules...

The rules are well-known and easily available. Don't pretend you're
unable to get hold of a copy.
Also, enquiring about the rules during a game may get you into huff,
under the Blum-Micail and Park-Miller variants.
