Twisted Kites

Had 20 minutes at Corley services earlier, on the way down from Manchester, as usual.

Went in, got a coffee, but didn’t get a voucher (a credit to spend on-site as mentioned in a previos post). The lady at the till said they’d ran out,as they are giving extras out generally. No big deal, that’s not the reason I stop there! She kept apologising and said I’d get one next time I’m in, I kept saying don’t worry about it, it’s fine.

I’m not fussed about receiving the voucher, I just like somewhere friendly to let my passengers off at and somewhere I can get a drink and maybe a snack without being ripped off. It’s the simple respectful treatment I received today that makes it worthwhile, and obviously encourage me to give them more business.

Some other service station operators and or locations might learn a thing or two here.

Apparently there has been some utterly terrible treatment towards our drivers at Watford Gap while I’ve been off. But I won’t discuss it yet until I found out exacly what happened and all that; I only speak out against people/companies where it’s really deserved!

Anyway, well done to Welcome Break at Corley for that bit of respect and friendly service. For that I’d encourage anybody to stop off there.
