You just Gotta love those Crazy Derby folks!
Derby City Council, run by the Lib Dems for the moment, are delivering a new £36m Ring Road development. They have 2 sections to it, both of which need, obviously naming. Now, here's where the genius of Derbyshire marches into its own, and as usual for Derby, on its own. Not for Derby some smoke filled room, were Councillors or officers suggest names such as Rolls Royce way, things like that. Nope, they let the public come up with some Ideas and boy did they not fail us. Merlin Way, named after the Famous Merlin engine developed by Rolls Royce. Steve Bloomer way, famous Derby City footballer, the usual suspects famous sons and inventions. Well, there is one stunning invention created in Derby. I, cyber geek, did not know that Lara Croft was created in Derby, by a geek who liked his women; tall, thin, massively endowed, dressed in very little, of which is inevitably tight and has a massive knowledge and ability to use experimental Military hardware. So follow this link and vote that part of Derby's new ring road will be called LARA CROFT WAY. At present, as you will see for yourself, the pixilated sex bomb/armed archaeologist has 97% of the vote! Go Derby!
