It's not obligatory to have a panini with every cup of coffee. ----- That's how people become obese and gross..

Does anybody eat and buy fuel on the motorways in the UK, the one at the end of the M4 at Pont Abraham is always at least 20 p per litre more than what I pay, = 90p per gallon

Not me Admiral, on the rare occasion that I get low on a motorway, my satnav lets me know where I can go to refuel

I would have to be in serious difficulty to buy ANYTHING from a motorway service area whether fuel or food. If I did miscalculate for any reason I would only buy enough fuel to get me to a properly priced fuel station. I suspect that the only people who use Motorway fuel stations are driving company cars and use a company credit card.

We regularly use motorway services - the ones where you get 20% off food and drink with the Caravan Club membership. Never buy fuel but have the purchases and toilet stop routine down to a fine art so no time wasted and vehicle never left unattended.

The only Motorway Services that I support are Tebay M6 North and South, and the same Company Gloucester North and South M5. They only use local labour and supplies and are 1st class. Still won't buy their fuel though!
