Indeed it might be, but you're currently in the Dollis Hill Loop...  Did you bring it with you?

If I remember correctly, I'm still runcible and in spoon, so the road somewhat sporks out from here. Sadly, the overall situation gives me only one possible way to end my situation. Jeeves, bring me my pistol.

Pinner.

Nope. I snapped out of Spoon, effevtively ending my runcible status too, by backflipping into Pinner. Quite impossible by any ruleset after 1917, but right now we're caught.

Just try to snap out of the Pinner Backflip.

No sooner are we out of a Dollis Hill loop, then we get caught in a Pinner Backflip...


Right, by riding BOTH the Piccadilly Line AND the Metropolitan Line CONCURRENTLY to Uxbridge, via Rayners Lane, I'm going to try and blow the Pinner Backflip into linearty, and get us back on track...

Herr Döktor, did you measure the lateral torque of the lines you were using concurrently? Maybe you should check that, or invoke the Carnelian Paradox again.

Thankfully due to recent works just outside Harrow-on-the-Hill, the lateral torque between the lines has been reduced to +/- 0.3 on the Bromsgrove scale, so thusly I find myself safely at

Picks up the book left on a seat in carriage 13...a copy of the Necronomicon translated into english by the Elizabethan polymath John Dee, and find himself in R'lyeh.

Hmm, R'lyeh's bizarre non-Euclidean geometry reminds a little of East Finchley Station.
