Wait - didn't the 1982 convention restrict the use of french airports (if i recall correctly it was assumed that they are perpetually on strike)?

If we are going to extend play to The Continent then I for one will be shocked and appalled. Appalled and shocked. Shocked. Appalled. And variations thereof.

Anyway, given that deviant behaviour, I feel I am perfectly justified in playing...

Anyway, plane highjacked by Justin Bieber-worshipping terrorists. Seems we'll have to land in Heathrow instead of Gatwick (still better than Lutton, though).

Approaching runway 28R...

Well, okay. I see how it is. If Schroedinger's Dog is going to use airports and runways then I am going to invoke Gordon and Childe's influential "Prehistoric Sites of England and their Impact on the Evolution of Mornington Crescent" and play...West Kennet Long Barrow

I would like to urge to you guys the fact that using an International Airport to go to Mornington Crescent is absurd, albeit totaly moronic.

Which is actually quite fitting, and in total accord with the 1865 decree on absurd and moronic moves (SR:026, alinéa* 54)

Stuck in the National Express because the driver is drunk. Almost in London, though, and still safer than most cab-drivers...





*Yeah, I can do accents too!

There are no nice airports in France, even international ones.

But if your plane arrives on 28R, the next proper move is

Planeraya

(end of the 7 line in Moscow)

Good luck finding your luggage after playing an interlock. As if the Stevedore's Union would allow such goings on.

Chad Kroeger did the same thing to someone outside a Vancouver club who shouted "Nickelback sucks!"

Beta Centauri? The Sea of Tranquility? I fear these places are not on the London Underground System and thus would not be approved by the MCC*. No one fucks with the MCC.

No one.

Seriously.

Waterloo, however, is a legal move, we'll go from there. Now for a sensible move to calm things down:

*Marylebone Cricket Club, also heavily involved in governing Mornington Crescent and, indeed, the known civilisations of several galaxies. You only think the British Empire is over. Oh no no no. We're still in charge. We're still very much in charge. After all the US president was born in Kenya as the birthers tell us, well Kenya is a former British colony (as is America). Coincidence? I think not. Next you'll be telling us the Giant Intergalactic Space Lizards are not our underlings ruling this planet until the Second Coming of Churchill and Queen Bess.
