Swindon twinned with Disney World

.... yes it's true, and wanna know what swung it, Rebecca's Chilli Cooper at 29 seconds.....
BBC News - Walt Disney World to become twin town of Swindon

Does anyone think that Swindon got dressed up a little? ;-)

Well I know whenever I pop into Swindon Town centre that there are some very entertaining characters, well there is in the job centre anyway

I think swindon are clutching at straws! With the worlds most illogical roundabout, maybe they wanted the worlds most illogical twinning?! Can you even twin and imaginary place (swindon) with an industrial centre (Disney)

If they can get a weird twinning, I want to be twinned with Liv Tyler

Thats the way to deal with it, don't hesitate, just go for it

And if its busy clockwise, then go anti and avoid the outsiders that don't think of going the wrong way round
