You have described a broken country - there are not enough truckstops in the UK, and as you say the facillities are run down, worn out and dirty and ridiculously expensive. Why does it cost 30 or more quid to park for one night? When snap first come out I thought Hey cheaper hgv parking at last! What an absolute con. The pot holes and craters that are found at every one of them bugger up your lorries costing more money! RDC's - no two of them have the same system of operation, some you drive straight in and go to transport office , some are gated with intercom that is often broken, some you have to hand keys in some you don't - there's a whole list of it! Thanks for your chat mate, keep on trucking! Knights of the road!
