|
Subject: RE: BS: Mornington Cresent - April Game From: Folkiedave Date: 13 Jul 06 - 11:45 AM I am certain it was the time they held titles. They did try and form deep and meaningful relationships though. Some of the personal adverts were a bit risque. In fact I shall start a new thread along those lines........ |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mornington Cresent - April Game From: GUEST, Topsie Date: 13 Jul 06 - 09:46 AM Gotta be Fox Corner then. (They didn't live very long in them days then Dave? Or was that just the time they held the titles?) |

Subject: RE: BS: Mornington Cresent - April Game From: Folkiedave Date: 13 Jul 06 - 08:45 AM Yes!! Found my Stovold!! I never realised that the first Cornishman to win a master's title was "Wee Airchie MacSporran 1700- 1707" (pp. 14-15). And that there is a book called "Feng Shui for Commuters". Remembering the congestion charge, I'll go for Raynard's Lane "We used to make us own fun in them days." Mr. 'Blister' Lister's sister - Notable Player 1909-1917. |

Subject: RE: BS: Mornington Cresent - April Game From: Mr Red Date: 11 Jul 06 - 12:59 PM Bunnahabhain - you do realise that starting from MC on MC puts you in nid for three full semesters. Pythagorian inclusions notwithstanding heretofore. So why not Cockfosters....... BTW for the confused beginners look at this , or this , you might see a familiar name (or two). |

Subject: RE: BS: Mornington Cresent - April Game From: Bunnahabhain Date: 11 Jul 06 - 09:14 AM The cat has bben very serious recently. I hereby invite all everyone to settle their differences through a less acromonious means, and am therefore declaring a new session of Mornington Crescent. The rules are simple and well known, so I shall not explain them. Here's the only legal opening. Mornington Crescent |

Subject: RE: BS: Mornington Cresent - April Game From: GUEST,Bill the Collie Date: 30 Apr 05 - 01:39 AM Sorry for my last post it's just that my beloved says that I always respond to the shipping forecast "Rockall" by shouting "folkall". Specialists and Consultants have failed to find a reason for this. It's hard, life, sometimes, so it is. |
