Hold your horses, I'm not sure you did.
I'm a bit confused as to what the give way markings are for on the leg of the junction. I assume it is just to more clearly indicate to traffic that they are actually approaching a junction despite the road appearing to go straight on. Surely it doesn't effect the way the roundabout operates?

No stopping me today.

In theory, no, but in practice it does, as people are used to at best slow down slightly at roundabout give-way markings when they can't see conflicting traffic, whereas they are used to slowing down more at double-line give-way markings. It's confusing, as I said above, and strictly speaking such markings should have no place at a roundabout and are caused by the fact that quite often driver behaviour at roundabouts doesn't confirm the theories about it.
