About to piss myself I swerved into a service station only to find the thing closed

it this stage it didn't matter I was going to wet myself, spotting a way in I grabbed my camera and dashed for it

In the UK motorway service areas, also known as service stations, are places where drivers can leave a motorway to refuel, rest, or take refreshments. The vast majority of motorway services in the UK are owned by one of three companies: Moto, Welcome Break and RoadChef. However, Extra are also developing a network of service areas. Only 20 motorway services in the UK remain in the ownership of the Department for Transport and let on 50-year leases to private operating companies. Some service stations also have hotels next to them offering motorists cheap overnight accommodation.

I avoid most services like the plague but this was quite nice, no AA/RAC guy at the front door hassling me, no lorry driver shaving his back in the toilets and no spotty turd giving my dirty looks from the Burger king
