A prize example of Swindon's tendency to create a roundabout out of a straight road.

That place looks good, Malaysia is fantastic for food. As good as Singapore just a bit cheaper.
I've lost count of how many times I've over ordered in a place like that.

For many years the location of Prawn Towers, home of the semi-eponymous Swindon millionaire, has been shrouded in secrecy.

Now a lexicographical analysis of postings to CUK, combined with sophisticated geolinguistic algorithms, allows the precise position of "The Blenheim Palace of Urban Wiltshire" (J Betjeman, 1936) to be revealed on Google Maps.

Behold the Eighth Wonder of the World!

Awesome, right next to the alphebetti spaghetti silo........
