    Haha! I find myself reading road names they have painted on the lanes instead of actually looking up! It is organised chaos, but for someone with a less than clear sense of direction, the whole concept of "i need to go off to the right, so i go around the roundabout and turn left" is just asking too much for me.

    I'm sure I'll get it eventually!! Fingers crossed!

    This happened to me whilst I was in the passener seat along side a Filipino driver..
    Her."Which way now Fred"?
    Me."Do a right at the roundabout"
    Her."OK"
    She then litterally turned right on this very large roundabout in North London.
    I cant tell you what happened next because its much too scary .
    All I can say is that it is just as well I didnt say
    "Go straight over the roundabout"
    I may well have survived if we were driving a 4X4 high wheel base landrover.(We were not)
