Watch out for The Magic Roundabout!  


Thanks Les, I've watched a couple of videos of it and now working on a Plan B for reaching my hotel!

It confuses hell out of the locals that navigate it every day.

It'll not be your satnav you'll be effing and jeffing at but everyone else that hasn't a clue which direction they need to go,it's a heads down free for all.

I only had to use the Magic Roundabout once and got through it without too many problems. You do notice the panicked look in the eyes of every driver you pass as you go around/through it, however!

Must admit, I’ve used it a few times and never had an issue. I knew where I wanted to go and got where I needed to be.

I suspect that’s why it doesn’t always work properly because people only focus on where they’re going and no other road users.

To be fair, first time I used it I didn’t realise.

Don’t be too concerned about the Magic Roundabout. The locals have been guessing their way around it for years. Eventually you find a formula that works.

First time I used the magic roundabout happened to coincide with 3 fire engines going out at the same time! All was good after that though

Never been to Swindon so IL see if I can get lost on it tomorrow. Having said that it can't be any worse than driving in Beirut last summer.

There’s not the same risk of ending up chained to a radiator either


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.
