Have you ever tried negotiating their road system |

theres a magic in hemel hempstead too though each island has less lanes
coming upto each junction and more space, a green park in the centre. theres less sensation of travelling with traffic going in opposite direction to your nearside as there appears in the piccy above. seen smaller versions where a staggered crossroads has two mini islands but you can still meet traffic 'wrong/near' side. all good fun. think it was cheltenham or gloucester.
