Yes. Have you viewed/posted new forum via WAP (This message was posted via WAP)
no - I haven't got wap activated on my phone cos I can't afford it
do you know the rules to Mornington Crescent?
Nope!
Do you own a Digital Camera (Not on your Phone)?
yes, but it's ancient and we can't find the battery charger (also got a Palm camera attachment, does that count? 😛)
have you had chickenpox? (the ratbag appears to have it 😞 )
yep
Is your tetanus shot valid?
no
do you touch-type?
No. But to type, I have to touch, so yes.
Re: Burlington Original Rules (as defined in Stovold�s). All WC postcodes count double and can be followed by a consecutive WC code. Crescents are wild as rule 42 is of course suspended.
Yes or No?
No - Basically it means traversing the same bit of track as the result of two (or more) moves by the same player travelling in the same direction without an intervening double or shuffle.
Am I making sense?
Probably, but I have no clue what Mornington Crescent is.
Are we talking about a card game?
No - how did you know it was Mornington Crescent?
Do you want to know more about Mornington Crescent?
lol, you were the one asking about Mornington Cresent a few posts up 😃
Yes
Is it a game played on a board?
no
wanna keep guessing? 😛
no,
wanna tell me? 😃
yes. it's a verbal game played using the London Underground. the object is to get to Mornington Crescent before your opponent(s) do(es).
Sound like fun? (Ewan plays it...)
No.
Mostly because it is not a game about London Underground. Oooooh, the cheek! Willie would be turning in his grave.
The answer lies in the Radio 4 programme; "I'm sorry I haven't a clue". Without wishing to go into too great detail, this prog was at times hysterically funny with one Humphrey Lyttleton in the chair. Mornington Crescent (and I'll probably get lynched for this)
[This paragraph has been lynched by the "Friends of Mrs Trellis" association of retired MC players - Ewan_FreEPOC]
became funnier with each playing. Countless websites are devoted to it. The world is a sadder place without "I'm sorry I haven't a clue."
Am I the only person in this forum who listens to Radio 4?
no and I would completely challenge your description of Mornington Crescent 😉 I don't listen to I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue as much since Willie died, but we do have several of the BBC tapes, including Everyman's Guide to Mornington Crescent and an edition recorded at the Edinburgh Festival where they played the Edinburgh version - Morningside Crescent.
Do you think anyone else cares about this? 😛
No. But we can sit smugly knowing that we heard some of the funniest stuff on radio. I just love Samantha and her laser display board. As for Sven.....! Humphrey really is so terribly funny. One of his many gems; "The experts' expert on Give Us A Clue, was Lionel Blair. Who can ever forget opposing team captain Una Stubbs sitting open mouthed as he tried to pull off Twelve Angry Men in under two minutes! "
Perhaps you're right though...
Is Baileys better than Tia?
I know I shouldn't really do this on this thread, but if anyone wants a real laugh, they could do worse than clicking here to read some of Humphrey's brilliance.
As I was saying, Is Baileys better than Tia?
a resounding YES! (on the odd occasion when I do drink, it tends to be beer or Baileys)
have you seen pictures of the ratbag?
No. I'd love to. I'm soooooooo broody.
Would you be willing to post one?
Yes.
Awwww, bless. She's a little sausage.
Aren't they amazing?
yes
do you like magic?
NO.
are you scared of the reaper? 😃
no, you're too cute 😉
do you like porridge?
No
r u sure?
yes... no... maybe... I don't know!
do you know what you're talking about?
No.
Have you had a nice weekend?
Yes.
Have you?
