Could the locals figure it out? No. There were so many accidents they had to amend the rules for the that one sodding roundabout, so now it's the outside lane for the first three exits and the inside lane for the fourth. The industrial estate is regarded as being invisible as it's only been there ten years now... bloody bumpkins!
Which Wellington? UK, NZ or Aussie?

That's what you get naming a city after a boot.

If it's that one at Chelston then I understand where you're coming from.

Yes! If you heading from the Wellington bypass, everyone heading towards Taunton (3rd exit) takes the sodding outside lane!

I'll go with that right now.
I done the London Expo last weekend and had over £150 of stock nicked. Chloe even caught one trying to nick 3 t-shirts, she grabbed the guy trying to get awat and another circled round and ran into her arm forcing her to let go. They all ran off into the crowd leaving her very upset and mad.
I missed the episode as I was the other side of the stall serving, but what really pissed me off is that no-one battered an eyelid over the fact a girl was struggling to keep hold of a guy clearly stealing and trying to get away. What a great world we live in.
There was not one stall holder who did not have stuff stolen from the stall, they were all going round in packs and literally coming up to you to try and distract you;
'is this your stall boss?'
'yes, why the f*ck would you ask me that unless you plan to steal something?'
Really wound me up as those that were caught were just kicked out of the show.
