What about signalling in supermarket carparks? Hardly ever see any there these days and yet it is just as important to let other cars know what you are doing as well as pedestrians, many of whom seem to think all the roads are pavements in a carpark. :-D

The lack of indication as to where you intend to turn has been a thing we have noticed for a long time, and so dangerous too.

oooops just caught upwith the thread...........gotya now must be some kind of TV slang...........bob-ing ;-) :-0

That's the one Wend. Never driven round it myself but OH has and daughter in Law when she visited her parents.

Ohhh......not yours then Wend :-D

No, Merlin - it's a car driven by one very careful lady owner, who never swears at other drivers or rudely gesticulates :-P

Is a Little Fiesta a Car??? or a Small party? if its Wends, It must be a Party :-S :-D

Not that monstrosity in Hemel Hempstead, Ann?

There's another magic roundabout in Hertfordshire I believe. OH had American visitors when he worked. They couldn't believe this magic roundabout when negotiating it. As far as I know they don't have a lot of roundabouts in America.

Yes I've also negotiated the Magic Roundabout several times when my daughter was living there. Surprisingly though I never saw any problems unless I was just lucky.-jl

Yeah, I know, Island, but I get scared in my little Fiesta and the drivers all look like Maria Sharapova :-(

Well personally I feel that anyone who has a problem with roundabouts should be given a course of lessons on the Magic Roundabout in Swindon.

In Hamburg some 20 years ago was asked by a german gentleman if I knew of this - I had to confirm I did.

I'll have you know they need those Chelsea tractors Wend - some of them have gravel drives to negotiate I'll have you know :-D :-D


I hope Dopeydoc is feeling better :-)

Lots of Chelsea tractors, full of 'little darlins', blocking the roads where I live :-|

we can't have Tarquin and Alice -Mayflower- Isabellabobblehat being late for their child prodigy classes Sharron ;-) :-D

Well I Travel with children and I personaly would not jeapodise their lives , my life or any persons life on the road or pedestrians for the need to get somewhere quicker.......

I really don't know about nationalities but I have found over the years that women with children in their cars can sometimes think they have some sort of priority because their need to be somewhere soon is rather more important than that of anybody else.

No, Uzzi, I don't remember doing it. Were you a Girl Guide :-D :-D :-D

yes, my brother was a 'brussel sprout', they give out stickers which people put in the window when they'd been jobbed so the others knew not to knock.

does anybody else remember doing bob a job week
