Are we eccentric?

OUT OF HOURS BULLY'S TRUCKSTOP BAR (INTERACTIVE)

Heard today on Radio 4.

In Swindon there is a Roundabout Appreciation society.

Seriously, the interviewer was talking to a chap called Kevin who is a senior member of this group. They go roundabout spotting and compare notes, photo’s and the virtues of their favourite and local roundabouts.

Please don’t take this as a criticism, I believe in live and let live, but is’nt this English eccentricity gone mad? :wink:

Its on a par with the Pylon of the Month Society, and yes they do exist, they even have a web site. :unamused:
