He said " you have the internet in the UK" :/ I said "Yes, We even have running water and electricity"

Only two things to remember about roundabouts, (1) vehicles approaching from the right have "right of way," and (2) the further your exit depends on what lane you choose (e.g. left lane - first exit or second exit, right lane - third and forth exits). Overall, plan your drive before going anywhere.

And as for roundabouts, they're a piece of cake - once you've successfully navigated one you'll wonder what all the fuss was about! And you'll also probably reach the conclusion that yes, they ARE better than US style intersections!

Roundabouts are scary at 1st (when you are learning to drive) but pretty soon you get the hang of them. Give way to the right / traffic already on the roundabout, just slow down when you approach and have a look, drop a gear and most of the time you can zip around it. Ah...yes, we mostly drive manual cars not automatics. I feel it gives me more control of the car as I have to think about what gears are needed for the road and when you do a sweet gear change and don't loose any revs...it is really satisfying!

It's actually a Theocracy (Though you'll not find it on many lists). God rules and his powers are delegated to the crown. I think there are 26 bishops who sit in the House of Lords. OK, we also have an elected government but still, every law that passes etc, has to be signed off by the queen, she is not obligated to do so and a law cannot pass without her consent. She can dissolve parliament and she appoints the Prime Minister who she then 'requests' to form a government. She can also declare war. Elizabeth II has always had a strong opinion in meddling though and to my knowledge has NEVER wielded her power in any significant way. Charles has signaled that he would be more meddlesome and is already quite active when it comes to politics, the environment, etc.
