Yes, that's impressive!  However it's my opinion that once you've driven in
London, you can drive anywhere.  I drove my cousin's mini back in the 1970s
and it was a gas!  Not sure I could do it now.  I don't mind driving on the
left - as a left-hander it seems natural to me - but all those roundabouts
and the traffic lights going from red to yellow to green instead of from red
to green threw me.

I feel sorry for the out of town tags.  If I had not grown up driving here,
I
don't think I would want to try to learn how now.

Y'all should know that Deri found my house -- in the middle of the night --
coming from Dulles (I'm close in to DC).  He had never been in the US
before,
and had the wrong kind of adaptive equipment in the rental car.  PLUS, I
think I gave him the wrong name of one exit, so he had to deal with that.
