Is that the one in Swindon?

Americans just love it (not) if they have a hire car.  (Not many roundabouts at all in the US)

Thats the one. I went round it at about 5.15pm and there were cars everywhere so I just went right round the outside. Dont know if I did the right thing or not but im still in one piece

But which way.......clockwise or anticlockwise ?

Doesnt matter which    

Dont know I had my eyes shut

5.15pm........hmmmmm.....not the best time to attempt a 'virgin' crossing of the roundabout.......rush hour an all.

Its sometimes best crossed using the loud pedal on full and emergency braking technique  

[Revokev]

I was in Ronnie Mcdonalds close to the roundabout at about 5.00pm eating a burger in the car park and a woman knocked on my window and asked if I wanted any business
I didnt know what she was on about

Do you get fries with it though?  

No fries just crabs

you didn't try the furburger and finger pie

Next time you know your gonna be in Swindon, Pete, give me a shout, I can show you a burger king (that wont have ladies of the night plying their trade in the car park, but then you might have now set your sat nav to include mcd's as a favourite   ) closer to the magic roundabout and then show how you can go either way around it  

Sounds good to me

I will be back in Wiltshire in January, dont know where but I have found a nice B+B in Devizes

What were you doing in Swindon then? Devizes is a good 20min run away........30mins if its not in the middle of night and doing silly speeds  

Or where you on yer way to devizes and decided to have a bite to eat and a nibble at the same time

You could fill a whole episode of "You've Been Framed" with that.

I had been working at the primary school in Brinkworth and thought I would go to Swindon to get something to munch on

That explains why she knocked on your window Pete - she can read minds

I was in Broad Town and Broad Hinton last week which I think is a bit closer

[ians]

There is a similar one in Hemel Hempstead btw.

There is a great pub in Brinkworth (3 Crowns I think) - serves all sorts of good ale and has an interesting food menu (incl alligator I seem to recall..)

The pub is at the top of School Hill about 50 metres distance from the School I was working at but I didnt get time for a swift one
