Surely an undulating sphincter gambit cannot be used unless all players have opted in to a full motion glebbit...?

I believe that any glebbit would have to have been enforced at least 3 days ago in order to be allowable.....

Also..I clearly stated that I wain fact ADDING my Pigment Topper Caveat to BliarOuts turn, therefore exempting myself from the 2005 Frenchman Clause

I relent from the side entrance at Latimer and using the classic St Stephens quadrantic flange move of upper and similarly lower disentangmental ascension to Stepney. (I think !)

Under the PetrolTed directive of 02, Mansion House is a nono unless immediately preceeded by Bank.Or are you playing the Snetterton variation?

Are you sure? The Snetterton variation can get quite intense (geddit?). It usually degenerates into alcohol fueled tomfoolery.

There is no such thing as an unwatched game of Mornington Crescent

Ettiquette young man, it's all about the ettiquette. I think it's most ungentlemanly to try and play a Thrumper when your opponents are not watching.

If you are intending to follow a Pigment Topper Caveat with a Thrumper when there's a Snetterton variant in play I would urge you to read your copy of the Old Etonian rules.
"All suburban areas are out of bounds, and if any two individuals become Boxed, it’s the senior player who’s granted right of way. Also, if a player makes a move that his fellows, or in this case the audience, see fit to applaud, then he’s officially In Pop, and is entitled to wear a silly floral waistcoat and to make his next move out of turn".

Now I think it only fair to assume Towman is senior and as such, you are In Pop. I believe the frilly waistcoat is actually yours Towman.

I am hurt and offended......

How can Towman be considered senior?
When, as I sit here, I am wearing my official MC outer foxglove with all seven national veteran event crests in place.....?

However, my apologies for the underhand thrumper attempt......I think it's the Gin...

if that is indeed th case, I will consider letting you have the waistcoat providing you can beat me in a 4 hour greco-roman wrestling session. I believe this method of handover was approved at the 1824 Lower Addiscombe summit.

why thank you, kind sir. If all seven national event crests are to be in place, and reference to Addiscombe having been made, I believe the third India High Commission addenda now apply...Euston. (oooh, getting close)
