Until another time then.

Thanks for the game.

Nooooooo! One.

Onto IR35 and disappeared into a vortex.

Ooooh. We seem to have reappeared on on square 5 of a children's Victorian morality board game. 'You have committed the vile sin of self-pollution, go straight to Hell.'

Until another time then.

[Old Greg]

Thank goodness it's a luminous die! Here goes... 5. 1-2-3-4-5. Phew! Back on the board and I'm on square 34... careful, don't throw a 1, or it's square IR35.

OK - from an embroidered rose, then. It's another 3. 1-2-3... oh dear! Still in the bloody bedroom and she's making advances. Please, throw a 2 to get us out!

I'll give it a go....

Two! Yes!

Uh-oh. It's gone dark.

[Old Greg]

OK - just so we're clear!

4. 1-2-3-4. Oh! A wormhole in the space-time continuum - I'm now in Queen Elizabeth I's bedroom. Hope I get an even number next to get back - the bed looks comfy, but she doesn't.

Three - up her patchwork quilt to a lovely picture of a swan. Up the swan's neck to an embroidered rose.

OK - you keep count. What f--- square am I on now, then?

3 - calm down, it's only a game.

[richard-af]

Are you saying we are playing as if one player? No way! I'm my own work-dodging man, I'll have you know.

[richard-af]

[Old Greg]

Oh and steer clear of square IR35.

No, I meant get a grip as in stop rolling bad throws and getting us down the snake. You got us to 1. I rolled a two to square 3. Just realised that we've only got 1 counter between us. Probably best.

[richard-af]

Oh and steer clear of square IR35.

[richard-af]

My mistake. Where am I then?

[Old Greg]

2. Snake... back to 1. Bah!!

Get a grip man.

Two - up to square 3.
