May have an overnighter in WSM. Is the truckpark on the 371 still open please? I’ll be loaded and the gaffer wants us parked up in a truckstop if poss. Pembroke docks before that though so if i have the time i’ll be trying to get to WSM for the night.

Thanks

Park up at lidl :grimacing: :grimacing: :grimacing: time off drive off :sunglasses:

The A371 truckstop is no longer there.
Industrial estates on the way in to Wsm are ok.
It is not a high crime area.
Just old folks with lots of money.
Avon Lodge truckstop at Avonmouth is secure.
Gets full early.But can reserve a slot.Snap there.
Third Way.

Signs are still up and there are lorries in every now and again. Big Tesco next door to it now.

Avonmouth is always packed irrespective of time of day.

Avonmouth is a pit. What’s with those ■■■■■■ 1970s communal showers, all stood around like a bunch of doggers

well lets be honest Weston S M aint really a truck stop is it now , its really a coach terminal with overnight Parking…
If your gaffer wants you to park in a truck stop I would think he’s wanting secure parking.

12

indeed he does want it secure…So WSM is out then really…So its between Pembroke docks and WSM

13

Newport■■? truckstop near the docks maybe :smiley:

14

don’t know about truck stop being open, last time I was down that way I swear the whole of WSM was closed :smiley:

Is the bar open again? I know it had shut last time I was in there. Admittedly that was a couple of years ago!!
