Hi all,
Well, as discussed elsewhere, it is that time of the year again when we realise that Mr Wheatstone's birthday has passed and gone and where is the memorial Charles Wheatstone game, eh? Mea maxima culpa, as they say in the Latin version of the game. Indeed, my culpa runneth over.
Therefore in accordance with established tradition and canon law I declare myself chairman for this game - having purchased a new horn - and invite Mr David Corner, last year's winner (and, I believe, our only double winner) to set this year's special rules and parameters and make the first move.
Chris
PS may I remind all players that as a member in good standing of the MCC (Mornington Crescent Chairpersons) support organisation I am incorruptible and cannot be tempted by sizeable sums of money to change my mind on any rulings I might make, though I would welcome attempts to test that assertion as a form of quality control. Used unmarked notes only, please.
