Putting on his saucepan hat, he waddled on his back for a few miles until he fell over a tiny planet. He picked it up and threw back into space, where it bounced up and down every time the the volcano cried.

On the Ning Nang Nong
Where the Cows go Bong!
and the monkeys all say BOO!
There's a Nong Nang Ning
Where the trees go Ping!
And the tea pots jibber jabber joo.
On the Nong Ning Nang
All the mice go Clang
And you just can't catch 'em when they do!
So its Ning Nang Nong
Cows go Bong!
Nong Nang Ning
Trees go ping
Nong Ning Nang
The mice go Clang
What a noisy place to belong
is the Ning Nang Ning Nang Nong!!

Aha! Since we seem to be playing the literary variant of the rules . . . . .
"Once upon a time
When the birds shit lime
And the monkeys chewed tobacco
There came a little bird
With a feather up his arse.
Well, the wind blew North
And the wind blew South
And the wind blew straight
From his arse to his mouth!"

Umm I don't think so BM. We are playing with 'escalator' rules.
While the original rules of Mornington Crescent (as laid down by the International Mornington Crescent Society) have been enjoyed by many players over the years, many variations and versions have been developed to spice things up a bit. The following are some that have been played on the show over the years.
ESCALATOR RULES.
1. A player can only go to Oxford Street when another player has been released from 'Nibb' and gone directly to Oxford Circus.
2. All WC postcodes count double, but cannot be followed by a consecutive WC code. Crescents are wild as rule 42 is of course suspended.
3. A player may not go to Mornington Crescent when the preceding player is at Bank. Anyone who mentions Mornington Crescent after Bank must miss two turns.
Game on I'm afraid.....

BM you were warned about slipping Nick's medication into Miss D's voddy. Have you forgotten what happened last time? nonono:

As I was going out one day
My head fell off and rolled away,
But when I saw that it was gone,
I picked it up and put it on.
And when I got into the street
A fellow cried 'Look at your feet!'
I looked at them and sadly said
'I've left them both asleep in bed!'

As I was going out one day
My head fell off and rolled away,
But when I saw that it was gone,
I picked it up and put it on.
And when I got into the street
A fellow cried 'Look at your feet!'
I looked at them and sadly said
'I've left them both asleep in bed!'
One bright morning in the middle of the night,
Two dead boys got up to fight.
Back-to-back they faced one another,
Drew their swords and shot each other.
One was blind and the other couldn't see,
So they chose a dummy for a referee.
A blind man went to see fair play,
A dumb man went to shout "hooray!"
A deaf policeman heard the noise,
And came and killed those two dead boys.
A paralyzed donkey walking by,
Kicked the copper in the eye,
Sent him through a nine inch wall,
Into a dry ditch and drowned them all.
(If you don't believe this lie is true,
Ask the blind man -- he saw it too!)

My lovely thread sad24:
I'll take that as a 'yes'! :thumbsup:
A man in the office chuckling to himself when a colleague comes in and asks what is so funny…
‘I made a rather embarrassing Freudian slip this morning’, he replies.
‘What’s a Freudian slip’ asks the rather dim colleague.
‘Well, I was queuing for my train ticket this morning when I noticed that the girl serving behind the counter had enormous breasts.
When I got to the front of the queue to be served I was a little flustered and instead of asking for a ticket to tooting, I asked for a ticket to titting. You see, that’s a Freudian slip when you are thinking of something else and say the wrong thing’.
‘Oh I see’ says the colleague.
The next day, somewhat predictably it was the colleague sitting in the office laughing to himself and the other worker who has to ask him what is so funny.
‘Well, you know you told me about that Freudian slip thing yesterday? I made one myself this morning’.
‘What happened?’ asked the startled man.
‘Well, I was sitting having breakfast with the Mrs. this morning and instead of asking her to pass the milk I said ‘"you’ve ruined my whole life you fat ugly bitch.’’
