Broadland Monopoly

[Timbo]

Okay I know my mind works in some mysterious ways...when it works at all, but something crossed my mind while I was perambulating the beagles this evening, just as a bit of fun...if The Broads was a monopoly board which Broadland Location would go on which space on the board?

 

Would Wroxham be Mayfair? Dilham...Old Kent Road? What about the stations? Would the utilities be 'Pump Out', 'Electricity Post', 'Water' and 'Diesel'? What about the cards in the Community Chest and Opportunity...what would they be? 'Speeding Fine down the Ant'. Instead of houses would we buy boats for a fleet until we could cash them in and upgrade to a Wherry? What about the playing pieces...bags I the life preserver?

[grendel]

bags the mud weight.

[ExMemberBobdog]

I'll take the rhond anchor as playing piece.  Someone else can have the fender.

[ExMemberBobdog]

"Do not pass under Potter Heigham bridge, do not collect 200 bream?"

[ExMemberBobdog]

'Go to Yarmouth' instead of 'Go to Jail'?

[JennyMorgan]

If there is a Soho in Monopoly then I suspect Yarmouth would be an apt swop!

[C.Ricko]

Do not pass Acle, go straight to Yarmouth. 

 

get off Breydon free.

 

land on 'GO' get a free pump out. 

[Siddy]

How about collect 4 days boats to get the houseboat

[Siddy]

Clive your missing a trick here you could sell Richopoly with your coloured fleet (can't think of any for 3 after jail plum colour)

[BroadScot]

In Chance or Community Chest.....you have won a beauty contest collect £10 from all Forum members!

[Siddy]

[C.Ricko]

[LizG]

I think this is great ~ Horning = Park Lane if Wroxham =Mayfair

[C.Ricko]

you have a fouled propellor, go back to Thorpe. 

[C.Ricko]

you hit the bridge, get in the minibus and go home.

[BroadScot]

in Chance....Its your Birthday....Free River Toll

 

 

Iain

[Siddy]

Get out of jail = Get under Potters

[BroadScot]

Fog on Braydon go back to Gt Yarmouth Yacht Station

[BroadScot]

Go back four spaces and dredge the River Thurne.

 

Iain.

[Timbo]

I just knew somehow you were all as daft as me! Well here's a board I knocked up to play with...Did we all agree Great Yarmouth as Old Kent Road? Breydon as Jail? I changed the community chest to that community chest that seems to be the navigation fund and I left chance to the good old BA. I added a Broads Toll as one form of taxation. So nominations for Whitechapel?

[BroadScot]

     Now get it manufactured for the Christmas rush!

[BroadScot]

Free Mooring at top left corner

 

Iain

[jillR]

printed on vinyl might be good so it would not get damp.

 

rather than a cardboard board.

that way it could be rolled for storage to.

[Timbo]

There we go, some 'Free Mooring'. The daughter in law worked for the family sign writing business so who knows there could be a chance I could get one knocked up on vinyl Jill.
