I think we’re still in the third section of the game, so I’m going to play the diagonal and say Knightsbridge.

For those asking about the rules, I think the 1949 almanac is probably the easiest to understand for a beginner. At 3000 pages it’s much more concise than the stuffy old 1947 version |

Not a fan of old modern rules. Prefer modern old rules with the Putney variation. |

Enough of you lot with your nips, sideswipe and around backwards to Piccadilly. That's a logical move. |

You can, but that will put the Inns of Court in Chuff until someone uses de Vere's Gambit. |

Nobody these days has got the balls to use de Vere’s gambit. Not while there’s an R in the month |
