Thank you. I'm afraid that I am working off an old rule book my mother-in-law's neighbor's sister's husband gave her one year for a birthday present. Family history has it that the rule book came from a garage sale the heirs of the elderly Widow Manchester held upon their mum's demise. Turns out the widow's mother was half British on her father's side. I should have known by the amazing gardening skills the widow had. Her yard was always ablaze in the most amazing blooms and she would wander about it deadheading things and humming the melodies to "God Save The Queen" and "Rule Britannia". Of course at three pm on the dot, she always stopped to put up the kettle for a spot of tea. I'm afraid her scones left much to be desired, as did the widow's cooking in general. I'm sorry, but there are other ways to season food besides a bit of salt and some dusty old cracked pepper. Liked to boil her meats, she did. Had three daughters, you know. A doctor, a lawyer and an Indian chief. Of course the Indian Chief part was by marriage. Anyhoo... the rule book publication date is altogether illegible on those yellowed old leaves of paper, but the leather is green and looks to be of good quality. You know the edition, right? The green one.

If I make a stop at Penn Station, then we can go for a ride on the LIRR.

Sorry to steamroller through here.

The next round will be played by Old Etonian Rules.

All suburban areas are out of bounds, and if any two individuals become Boxed, it’s the senior player who’s granted right of way. Also, if a player makes a move that his fellows, or in this case the audience, see fit to applaud, then he’s officially In Pop, and is entitled to wear a silly floral waistcoat and to make his next move out of turn.

With that in mind.
