I'll ask around while I'm there.
When did you last see your trousers?

I'm afraid that I changed the playing field again. It's the Berlin U-Bahn right now.

A-HA! You should all recall the 1968 Russian Tea Room fiasco in which a UK, U.S.A., Germany triad move
(Oddly called a "Chutney") allowed a previously unknown player to enter the game with a "Steamboat Willy" Gambit.
You have all been transported to the tomorrow world train station at Disney World.
Cheers!

I don't believe that the Steamboat Willy Gambit is valid under the 1952 rules, so I'll continue play in the U-Bahn
AlexanderPlatz would be good, but...

Pshaw.. I invoke (as is my right by due of 34 years indenture) the "Great Railroad Rule".. Playing field is now the CPR Laggan Subdivision (surveyed 1883)...
Therefore... two meal tickets and...
Canmore!

Tricky... Too tricky perhaps....
So, given that we're in Canada, I'll head for Ontario.
11 Sunbridge Crescent, Kitchener, ON N2K 1T4 to be specific.
Yes, it's the Mornington Crescent Bed & Breakfast!
