they want a high street experience
That's what the nice man from some motorway service station company said about his customers on Radio 4 this morning. I have no idea what he means by this. However, as someone who has used service stations I'm pretty sure it's not what I want. I'd like somewhere I can stop, have a quick rest, possibly some food and fill the car with fuel and not leave feeling like I've been ripped off. Most of the service stations I've been to, and it's not an extensive sampling, fail spectacularly on the last point. Few of them are great on the rest front either as wandering across a carpark into a plastic and concrete building that's invariably too hot, noisy and overcrowded isn't all together restful.
