Baker Street would have given me more options, Syzygy... but at the risk of taking the game into that dilemma from the 1974 final....

Now the obvious ploy here would be to go for Moorgate, but anyone who remembers the nail biting climax to 1983 will recognise the danger of a double reverse diagonal onto the Circle Line.

Russell Square.

Dubious move - you're close to bridging on a lateral-reverse; had you tried Holborn rather than Russell Square, you'd have ended up in Nip, for sure.

Bearing in mind you opened with Dollis Hill (without the Hammersmith Tag defense!)....

Ooohh Christ, I'm going to have to be careful here.

Let me think about this for a while....

OK - this is a little risky, I know, but it is within the rules -

Covent Garden

Oh good one, that leaves me in spoon.

It's a weak move (I admit) but I'll reply with Fulham Broadway (I guess that will teach me for being so agressive a few moves back).

This looks perilously like the endgame to me - I was hoping to play the Hyde Park Corner gambit (declined) but at this stage of the game it would be a serious breach of the Bakerloo Negative Axis ruling (4th amendment). I have no playable options, so I'll have to *farkle*.
