Magic Roundabout in Swindon

This weekend, as well as dealing with the trials of cows on train lines, camping during thunder and lightning, and being baa’d at by a million sheep, I drove around over this beastly piece of tarmac four times.

This sheltered city boy is a wreck.

  1. There was thunder and lightning? I really was drunk… ;-)Need sleep…

  2. Ahahaha :) Was fun though!! I think you did very well!

    now imagine living near one of those things ;)

  5. I thought you had Photoshopped this whole thing together, but it turns out The Magic Roundabout exists! My God — that roundabout is totally and utterly nuts. The only thing for it is an exclamation mark!

    !

  6. I have had the misfortune of using the Hemel Hempstead version of this roundabout during my week-long commuting session between Oxford and Luton. It wasn’t confusing, but the thing that struck me was the fact it still took 15 minutes to negotiate the bloody thing during the rush hour.

  7. I think the fact that before I went on it for the first time everyone scared me with the build up and had I not been so nervous it probably would’ve been fine..
