MSA’s are rip of in general I always thought…
I went to one the other week, an bought a can of coke, mars bar and a pork pie, and said to the girl behind the counter " sorry but i only have a £50 note " She said " thats o.k put the mars bar back "… i’m ere all week
And some people wonder why I cook in the lorry…
Got to say, i had a wonderful meal today at Oxford services…half a roast chicken & chips, with a cup of tea, only cost me 1p!

+1, but sometimes needs must, and you have no option.
You have 9/10 hours to find a place to park with decent grub
Yes you do, but no matter how hard or best you plan something, it just has a habit of going titsup somewhere along the way.

Santa:
I once spent an unplanned Friday night at Clacket Lane. In the morning I though I might as well have a full brekkie (Then about £6.00). The food looked OK, but when he handed me the plate it was stone cold…I asked him to find me a hot one and he looked at me as if I’d asked to sleep with his sister. I repeated (louder) that for £6, I expected a HOT breakfast. He said he was ‘sorry’ but… there weren’t any.
I sent him to find a manager while the queue behind me started to grumble.
A cook in a white coat came out and gave me “What’s the problem mate?”
I (still loud) told him, and pointed out that I wasn’t “his mate”.
He scowled and went into the kitchen and came back with another plate, and the first guy started to scrape the cold breakfast onto it. The noise behind me was getting louder.
At this point there was no way I would eat their food - the cook probably gobbed on the plate or wiped his ■■■■ on it anyway; so, in a very loud voice, I told them that for their extortionate prices we had the right to expect, at the very least, a hot meal, and stomped off to buy a sandwich.
NO one clapped…
…Maybe the clap was already on the plate - from being wiped on his ■■■■?

Bought the Mrs a donkey for christmas, by easter it had no hind legs
A Christmas, if I got my girl a monkey, and she gave me a pony - I’d merely be out of pocket £475!

Where do I sign up?
Who wants my tinned tomatos and black pud?
It could be a family buffet…
1 can of coke, 0 brews, zippo coffee lets it down badly though.

The photo of the meal looked bigger than it was,it was too small,and only a few tea spoons of beans,small sausage,and so on,if i had brought my young nephew with me,who is only 4,he would have starved on what this MSA charge nearly £8 for.
How a grown man can work all day on their measly portions,it was Roadchef at M5.
I felt hungrier leaving the place.
Its your own Fault

the only thing i ever buy at msa is a newspaper, its the only thing they never up the price of.I don’t even give them the satisfaction of that, all I do is take a dump there and they haven’t worked out a way of charging for bog paper yet.
You come out of the bogs, and there’s some enticing fruit machines opposite with £500 jackpots, and there’s 3 bars or something similar on one of the 4 reel jobs. They take NOTES these days sheesh! two quid a spin some of them as well!
Then there’s the ATM which always charges without fail, plus the pick and mix that gives you a quarter pounds worth of sweets for the same price as a breakfast… Then you get some guy or tweedy bird swaning around the truck park stinking of ■■■■ trying to sell you some kind of accident insurance, and finally when you get back to your cab, you’re so dead beat you try and get your head down, oversleep and get wacked for the overnight parking fee!
About the only thing that gets on my ■■■■ that doesn’t involve being ripped off is some pallet hightopper hogging the only working derv bunker, because he’s decided he’ll have a ■■■■ rather than actually get some fuel or even buy something in the shop…
ARRRGH!
