    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.

    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.

    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.
