My fault - I forgot that a Tramlink move has to be made on a dot-and-carry-one basis otherwise the end of line defaults kick in. I will try to rescue the situation by a low speed transit to Kensington Olympia
deuce - I'm off to Wembley Central for a proper ball game
Using the Jackson moonwalk from one stadium to another we're at Putney Bridge.

And onto the SWML we go with Queenstown Road

Which must lead to Hampstead Heath as per Stovold's original rules.
Edited to add...would Queenstown Road put you in nidd on strike days?

Play it safe - don't get into an argument with Stovold, my mum always said …. can't think of anything safer than Headstone Lane
As regards Queenstown Road - no, because Nidd is only accessible from the northbound Bakerloo Line between Elephant and Waterloo.

I wouldn't be seen dead there so I'm off to Bow Church

I'm not religious so I'd rather go to Bow Road instead!
I'm going to use the Antioch defence to all these bows and move to St. Paul's.

Bayswater. As this is a WC postcode according to the Continuous Chain Method this scores triple points and counts towards league standings in the Armitage Shanks Memorial Bowl.

We appear to have ended up at White Hart Lane - we might have veered off course slightly from the real wonderful game.

Certainly looks like it, I might have to use Gideon's Amendment to my advantage here and go to Bank.
Bank, is it? OK, then I'm going to put my faith in the tube map and assume that there is a sensible interchange there from the W&C line to the District line at Monument. If you haven't heard from me in three days, please send help.
Also, under the Voldemort interdiction of 2006, whoever decided that the two stations should be referred to as "Bank / Monument" as if they're basically the same place is consigned to Nidd in concrete boots.
Yes, I'm still bitter.

Concrete boots might be very useful in Nidd to allow walking on beds of fire, that sort of thing. So I think I will wander down to Mudchute to see what emerges from the depths.

Hmmmm....if straights are disallowed would Sven's Deviation from Mudchute take me up the Oxo Tower? Sorry, on second thoughts can I change that to Arsenal?

Hmmmmm a tough one. Fongston interpretation offers little but is all I have left in my hand.
Weak but I have to play Temple. No choice really.

No, no, no! Have you forgotten the Boleyn prohibition? Anything green is unlucky on the 28th of any month. So to try to restore balance it's got to be
Redbridge

But the Boleyn prohibition is not valid during the festive period. The Santa Clause rather obviously states that between December 23 and January 2nd the actual date is treated as an unknown. Some interpretations ( particularly that of St Nicolas College) go so far as to say the day of the week is ignored which personally I feel is to wide an interpretation frankly.
Therefore i play Parsons Green

That interpretation has been challenged by the MRLP (previously known as the Monster Raving Loony Party) on the grounds that if the date is treated as unknown, it might be the 28th, so the uncertainty principle should be applied. You think you are at Parsons Green, but in fact reality has changed to put you at Dagenham East.

Right, so using the residual field from your indulgence and winding up the artesian pressure to maximum we should just about be able to reach Zone 6… no dammit, the end of line default has kicked in again … Elephant and Castle.
