Flyboy you're not suggesting that I'm dead are you because that would suck? It would mean I was in purgatory, which would explain why I've watched Jonathan Ross and Newlyweds in the last two hours but also I don't want to die.

Erm. Isn't there a tunnel that goes under it?
I only know this because my pals almost died weaving through the traffic and discovered it afterwards.


Yes, I too discovered this at a later date.

It's a bit like Marble Arch, come to think of it - another giganitic roundabout (sort of) which is a real pain to traverse on foot (especially with a pushchair, which makes going down the foot tunnels equally uncomfortable).

Is this threadrot, or can this thread rot anyway?

I think that depends on whether or not Meludreen's still agog.

I'm still agog.

Mostly at the Magic Roundabout. It looks vaguely Lovecraftian.

Thread's still on course. I was flagging a bit but like Sekhmet, that roundabout A'd my gog good and proper.

there's a town in California that has a lot of roundabouts, but they're tiny, and they're not like British roundabouts. They're probably supposed to be decorative or something.

Is there a zoo on that roundabout?

The body of a Basingstoker who died in the middle of the massive 'Town Centre West' roundabout wasn't found for four days. Another Basingstoker 'lost' several hours whilst crossing this roundabout and claimed to have been abducted by aliens.

The Daneshill roundabout is home to the 'Basinghenge' stone circle, the scene of strange rituals at Summer Solstice.

"How did we get here?" he (Arthur) asked, shivering slightly.

"We hitched a lift," said Ford.

"Excuse me?" said Arthur. "Are you trying to tell me that we just stuck out our thumbs and some green bug-eyed monster stuck his head out and said, Hi fellas, hop right in. I can take you as far as the Basingstoke roundabout?"

Basingstoke is notorious for its roundabouts and thats about all.

Nicky Wire wanted to do a story for 'Cracker' that involved dead bodies being left on roundabouts. Strangely Jimmy Mcgovern turned him down.

Roundabouts always make me think of JG Ballard's "Concrete Island". Actually, lots of things always make me thing of JG Ballard's "Concrete Island"...

That Swindon roundabout has my head in a swirl - I keep staring at it and trying to qwork out a route across. I kind of have it, but I pray I never have to actually drive/ ride through the thing. Do you have accident statistics?

I'm still agog, by the way.


Completely.... totally..... just.......Psssshh!

Is this thread completely bonkers, or just too transatlantic for me?
 
 
Mon Oncle Ignatius
08:03 / 23.12.06
No, merely a product of circular logic.

But not Meludreen any more.

Let´s hope nobody starts a guide to peeing eggnog, guide to seeing through bad fog, or a guide to squeeing a hedgehog thread.

the magic roundabout scares the hell out of me.

btw, oregon and washington are full of roundabouts, which the migrating californians seem sort of baffled by.

I wish there was a roundabout in France called "Le Rond-pont Magique".

So, is California being gradually encircled by roundabouts across the other states, to cause the inhabitants confusion?

I think we could manage a Pirate's guide to drinking grog thread though?
