Overnighted in Junction 14 last night. Meant getting up at 6 rather than before 4 for a flight.

Grand but only trouble was boy racers revving the sh*t out of their cars. Didn't know it was a sport

The thread title gave me a bit of a start, thinking someone was talking about parking on the hard shoulder of a motorway 🤪
As regards the boy, and maybe girl, racers. It's a pity engines now have rev limiters, in the old days before limiters they would probably be sending the con rods out through the engine block

Stayed there on the way back too (Friday night)

Was much quieter but that could have been down to the fact that didn't arrive their until 1:30 am

On another note needed to ask the Clayton hotel for a jump start, first for me in 18 months with this vehicle. Main battery obviously a bit weak and the 6 days and colder weather showed it up. Guy came out with a tiny starter pack but it did the job
