    They've been on a downward spiral ever since Dim moved in.

        Maybe if CyberTory were to move there the prices would rise by 10% each year.

          Moonrakers... parked outside it, never been in it.

          How many pubs operate a pay and display car park?

            Swindon is a funny place, when you enter the outskirts it feels like any other 'out of town' shopping area then you keep going and come out the other side.

              Ah but at least you have to go across the "magic roundabout"

                That's not a Magic Roundabout

                This is a Magic Roundabout!

                Yes, thats right, a roundabout surrounded by 6 mini roundabouts with traffic goung around them all in both directions...

                  In defense of Swindon, there are some quite nice bits on the outskirts.

                  Haydon Wick on the North West side of the town is almost rural. Decent pub there too. The town centre is a disgrace though, lacking any of the amenities you would expect in a town that size, and Swindon Council are a bunch of incompetent dipshytes.

                  You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.

                    That first one isn't Swindons magic roundabout, this is: Link.

                    The Swindon one is more daunting.

                      I nearly sh@t myself the 1st time I came across the magic roundabout!

                      Confusion reigns...

                      However, you soon learn the correct technique to cross it

                      1) Pick your exit

                      2) Show no fear

                      3) Just go for it!
