Mornington Crescent

Another Net challenge for me today was to find out about the game "Mornington Crescent" - I am none the wiser if the truth be told, but astonishingly I have discovered it has Welsh roots.

Mornington Crescent

A brief history

The great game of Mornington Crescent was first played in Newtown, mid Wales between the half-unknown half-brother of Jules Ceaser (Dai Ceaser) and Jack Jones the Butcher on Market Street in the year AD43. A particularly vicious vertical move to Fairlop via Bank resulted in an unsightly street brawl outside the Irish pub and three days of disturbances. When order was restored it was decreed that only disused stations on the London underground may be used to make any vertical move in the game. The unfortunate end result of this has been that until Mornington Crescent is moved from its current position, the game in mid Wales started in AD43 continues to this day.

Mrs Ivy Trellis has kindly agreed to allow her website to be used in a continuation of this game which is now reaching its pinnacle of conflict. You are invited to take part. Please sign in using the form to the right. You can watch to start with and when you see an opportunity to participate please feel free to make a move in what we believe to be the longest running version of the game.

Experienced players of the game please note that although Welsh Sunday restrictions apply, Norton's Convention on horizontal moves still applies.

Poem

by welshceltgirl @ 2005-10-01 - 22:15:48

My friend Bri sent me this poem yesterday. It is very poignant, I don't know who wrote these words but they convey a lot to me.

"If memory,
was written down,
I'd cut it up,
and cross it out,
'cos memory holds the hurt inside,
of all the pain, and all the lives.
And you might say,
the past is through,
but the past goes right on through
And memory,
holds the hurt inside.
Regret creeps up on you.
So put your hand,
into my hand,
and may be we'll forget,
that life had even started,
before our hands had met."

Have been surfing the Net tonight trying to find out about Weblogs and here I am!
Haven't got a clue what I am doing really, a little while ago I uploaded a picture but I haven't seen it since!:?:
