  As a special weekend treat I thought I would share this story with you. Half way between East Leake and Gotham there is a roundabout, for the road used by lorries carrying "gypsum" from the powerstation at Radcliffe on Soar to the gypsum mine in East Leake. Coals to Newcastle? Indeed - gypsum is made in power stations now and gypsum mines make plasterboard out of it.
Anyway, I digress.... One day, when I was driving along the road, not particularly slowly (probably regulation speed limit + 10% + 3 = 69mph), someone decided to use the roundabout to overtake me by going around it the opposite direction. It has central reservations on the approaches too so it was quite a risky move. It was really quite impressive. It also showed me a thing or two about being a fat Miserable Old Git, rather than a youthful and dashing twatface.
