    In Response to Re: My favourite service station and motorway:
    Tikay, Have you been to Beconsfield service station? it's new near Oxford, its just a big spacious thing and i dread to think how much it cost to build that dome like structure, beware when ordering from the Burger King it took me about 25 minutes and several different languages and dialects to get my order in the end i told him to shove it. Have you been to Donnington Park on the M1 Tikay? I totally forgot about this service station and is up ther with my favourites, the travel lodge is build around the service station and theres computers you can use for Skypoker after a nice sleep, Marks and Spencers bio-yogurt and orange juice in the morning, I did get told of for wearing my dressing gown and slippers around the arcade at 8 am in the morning.

    To the first, yes, I use it regularly when I drive down from home, in Derbyshire, to Sky Poker, in London, & I particularly like the M & S Shop there. I'm not sure I'd decscibe at as being "near Oxford" though! It'd be a tidy walk, I tell ya......

    Donington Services, yes, they are very close to my home, it's J24/23a of the M1, & I live just near J25.

    My issue with both of them is identical - they are not, in my opinion, "true" Motorway Service Stations, as neither is actually ON the Motorway, & involve a bit of off-Motorway messing around to gain access.

    But yes, both pretty decent, that apart.

    I'm currently "off" junk food, as I'm on a rather brutal diet, so the presence of an M & S or Waitrose, where I can buy fresh fruit, is a must.
