Sodding magic roundabout. I was really disapointed by it. I paid the taxi driver extra to go out of my way to see it too!  sad24:

They are not ... they just defy all laws of logic except to road planners. The rest of us just have to manage to get in and out of them. I've heard tales of elderly people driving into them and running out of fuel before they've found the way out again.

Swindon was...typical Swindon...

The profile refresh has gone extremely well - apart from the fact that one of the updated programs has an "undocumented design feature"...which basically means it doesn't work properly. There are scenes of mass panic on the 3rd and 4th floors. I retired to the pub for some Young's to mull over the best rectification method...

Barman - my role in this is purely to make sure the update goes in - not no make sure the updated programs do as they should. My part, therefore, has been acieved - the fact that the "big" company chose not to include us in the testing of the updated program is their fault - now they will have to release a further update to fix the problem only we are suffering. And we make about seventy million pounds profit a year, so it will happen. And I will get overtime and a bung of about a grand to make sure it works this time. I LOVE IT when they screw up! Which is most times!  cloud9:
