When we went to visit last year, it was hard to get used to driving with them, thankfully hubby did all the driving when we were there. It can be a bit confusing if you aren't use to it.<br /><br />thanks for your kind comment on my return to blogging :)<br /><br />enjoy the week ahead<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469509176316025961.post-70992993548798717552011-02-11T06:26:53.899-05:002011-02-11T06:26:53.899-05:00The UK is full of roundabouts and they work so wel...The UK is full of roundabouts and they work so well...yield to the right is the thing to remember there so here I guess it would be yield to the left : ) Everyone obeys the rules of the roundabout. We had big 'circles', as we called them, in my town growing up. The motto of most people was don't make eye contact and just go for it. Lots of jams...they've taken most of them out and made them intersections now. <br /><br />Happy FRIDAY!Joycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16727615822243830106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469509176316025961.post-59352449266924839592011-02-10T23:28:34.691-05:002011-02-10T23:28:34.691-05:00It feels good to blog and just "let it all ou...It feels good to blog and just "let it all out", doesn't it?

They don't bother me and I really haven't encountered any ignorant people around here driving in them. I suppose I'm lucky! haha <br />I kind of agree on the school thing too! Knock on wood though we have been lucky with the illness thing. I'm hoping it stays that way!kimerthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12908561354210742485noreply@blogger.com
