Handbags   (The sad, the bad and the ugly. Non-productive stuff here.)

Started by: priscus (inactive)

In the 1980's, of course, somewhat less motorway then, I had a wonderful little book called:

'Just off the Motorway'

It listed, for every motorway junction, all the facilities within two miles: eating,pubs, fuel, recreation, shopping and stuff worth seeing etc.

It was good having this stuff in book form, I planned my motorway journeys taking in interesting places and eateries etc. Never used motorway services again!

I don't think a book like this could now compete with electronic media.
