the first blue dot on the left is where i enter the roundabout using the left lane and i exit the roundabout where the pink dot is and as i want to go right at the following roundabout i indicate to move into the right hand lane to go right, is this the right procedure

thanks for your replies

Yes.
unless signposted otherwise:
You enter the roundabout to go straight through in the left lane, as you are doing. (Can't see a blue dot though?)
Then indicate, move into the right lane (as you are doing) and stay there, indicating right until you pass the last exit you aren't using, then indicate left and stay indicating until you complete your exit from the roundabout

In cases where the first left on your first roundabout is a very busy road, the loacl authority may signpost and tell you that you must use the right lane to go straight through. But if that's not there, keep doing what you're doing.

From what I can make out from the diagram, your'e doing fine. To go straightahead at a roundabout is often confusing. It shouldn't be but for some it is. You see when you want to go straigh ahead you can legally go in either lane. Just don't use your right hand indicator. Don't use anything ad keep those eyes open. Nowadays people do what they want anyhow and no matter what happens someone will beep at you!

I was once driving a coach and pulled up at a roundabout in the lefthand lane. A car shot up beside me on my right hand side. I started to go straight ahead and he wanted to turn left! So I did what any good minded driver would do and turned his car over!! (That was a joke for all those out there who wanna moan...) I couldn't help it, I was going ahead and his words were, "I thought you were gonna turn left." "Why?" I asked. "Dunno, coaches usually turn left here." That depite the fact that there was a bus station straight ahead about 200 yeards away in clear view!!
