Indicate the direction that your front wheels are pointing or about to point.  Works every time.

That seems totally unambiguous to me.  Just wish all road users would do that as well so I knew what they were doing!

That must confuse people when you enter the roundabout unless you intend taking the first exit left. hugegrins

On the subject of roundabouts and indicating anyone tried the roundabout roundabouts of Colchester? 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_Roundabout_%28Colchester%29
So glad they built a new bypass so I don't have to negotiate it too often on visits to Essex. I lived there some years ago and they were always trying new configurations out on the old Clacton main road, just to catch people out no doubt.  smile!

How many have noticed in Scotland they have signs situated on the approach to roundabouts requesting drivers indicate their intensions.
And most do
