Round-Abouts and Shiny Things.

Microsoft's new Operating looks nice and shiny, so shiny in fact that it will be hard to get the finger-prints off. Who knows it may even work : P. I won't bore you with any more details as ther is plenty of that avaliable on the world wide wibble.

And now on to Round-Abouts, Nelson is the spiritual home of the Round-About, they are not only are they traffic control measure, they are also a way of life. We have all sizes here from the cute little dimple in the road to large multi-headed hydra systems of inter-connected ones. I am convinced that they are either Mushrooms or Crashed UFO's as they have a habit of appearing over night. Perhaps i should call in Mulder and Scully or perhaps even the boys off Bad Taste.

Anyway things have come full circle in this town, plans are a foot tol replace some round-abouts with that other modern miracle Traffic-Lights. Of course in this day and age they will have to Politically Correct and environmentally friendly so provocative colours like red are out and environmentally friendly and happy colours like green are in. Of course to be truly politcally correct the ligts should all be a nice gender and belief neutral shade of beige.

Thats enough drivel for tonight..
