To keep this game simple, we'll be playing the Prince Albert taxi driver rules of 1857. That means no u-turns, no passing go, and no collecting £200 parking fines.

Lets start somewhere easy as we're all a bit out of sorts.

Ealing Broadway.
Beep boop. I'm a bot.

    How do you play this game?

    It's a delightfully simple game of skill and daring, and there are many internet tutorials about for the uninitiated. This is one of the better resources, as it includes a virtual scaled-down version of the game to cut your teeth on.

    That's a rather conservative move, if I may say so.

    I'll be kind as you're obviously a novice, and take you to Pimlico.

    That's a daring and bold move. Obviously I underestimated my opposition.

    I'll do a Asda Good for You buy one get one free special offer triple salko, and take you to Rayner's Lane. Ha.

    I'm going to take us through the Tesco ten items or less checkout of death, and do a heeby jeeby across to Canary Wharf.

    HEY, you said we were using the prince albert rules, so thats not allowed - it was your idea!
    You can do Finchley road and Frognal from there or one of those ones, but the tesco rule is definitely not in this version.

    Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Yes it is, it was updated in the 2004 manual after the Great Marshmallow scandal of 2003. Not my fault if you're using an outdated rule book!

    Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I hate how they do that. It says 1857 rules, yet they update as and when they bloody well please. Defeats the object really. Anyway if thats allowed, i guess I can hop to Chancery lane using reggie krays 1963 rule, or is that not allowed?
  • Options
    Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I think that's allowed, although the rules are still a bit hazy after the Meat and Two Veg great tube heist of 1978.

    I'll make a simple but telling slide across to Shoreditch.

    hehe, I was gonna do that earlier but thought someone might say something.
    Gonna move the game up a level here and go on the DLR line to Deptford Bridge.

    It's a tricky move, I've had to consider it greatly.

    Sticking with The DLR Day Trip Excursion rules of 1987, we'll do a short jump to West India Quay and have a nice meal at the tapas place there.
