Hello there, I’ve just pulled in for a 45 minute at the Stobarts Rugby truckstop. Never having been to a Stobarts truckstop I’m not sure on the procedure.

Turns out I was met by an empty gate house (so I couldn’t ask this in advance) and a ticket machine I had a wagon behind me so I couldn’t turn around. It’s given me a ticket for getting out. Will I be charged for taking a 45 minute break here or does it only come into effect after a certain amount of time eg. 2 hours like other service stations?

Take your ticket inside to validate it. Shouldn’t cost anything for a 45 break

You get 2 hours free parking .You will need to validate your ticket to do that go into main building as you go in there is a ticket machine put your ticket in to validate it.When you leave put ticket in the machine by the security hut machine will say goodbye ramp will go down of you go.

He should be safe in there. It’sJoe is at Appleton.

Although his mate often hangs around Rugby truck stop. You will be able to see him easily.

He has " It’s not Joe " printed on his hi-viz.

The only reason I was sweating it was because if they did charge me, I’d have been paying Dozys wages :wink:

Is he as ‘kick ■■■’ as Its Joe? just wondered if its the same format at Rugby as Appleton ie head bounced off the pavement for anyone not complying… :stuck_out_tongue:

Don’t think you need to validate…if under 2 hours.
