All road intersections will be replaced with roundabouts. You will start driving on the left with immediate effect. At the same time, you will go metric with immediate effect and without the benefit of conversion tables. Roundabouts and metrication will help you understand the British sense of humour.

Roundabouts = 'traffic circles'. If there wasn't a reason to fight an invasion to the death before, this pretty much clinched it. I think they're still pissed that an American invented the traffic light.

As a denizen of the Internet, which it turns out is worldwide, it's my duty to inform you that Snopes says false.

I was really hoping that this letter was true. Why'd you have to ruin my fantasy, Undertoad?

Undertoad · 08-15-2005, 08:43 PM

Oh it's true alright. Just not Cleese's.

You ain't seen nothing yet - we have multiple roundabouts which allow you to circulate clockwise on the outer ring and anti-clockwise on the inner one. Don't believe me? Then look here

I thought it was a photoshop, and it is not.

Well, I did notice something that looked a bit like charred corpse.

I like how they named it the "Magic" Roundabout. So magic is going to keep you safe?

wolf · 08-16-2005, 01:17 PM

What happens if you stop believing in the roundabout halfway through?

wolf · 08-16-2005, 01:20 PM

Oh, and one other thing ... I do NOT want to have to meet and/or deal with the demonic force that thing has been summoning. Sunwise and widdershins travel, with road rage added for extra special flavoring ...

Ceremonial magic is not for amateurs, especially not when you're dealing with something that takes 30+ years to cast ...

Nuthin beats the New Jersey "Jug-Handles".. why would anyone make left turns illegal??

mricytoast · 08-16-2005, 01:58 PM

Oh... Oh god. Those are such an annoyance. You can't make a left turn and if you miss your exit there's no hope of ever getting back on the right road.
