We often bemoan here how good the spams are and how bad the Brits are at giving discounts, so here's a BZ for one company.
One happened the other day to be using the M40 in uniform, and stopped mid-morning at a Service Area for a double espresso and piece of pecan pie, as one does.
Imagine my surprise and delight when, unasked for and not mentioned, a figure of 20% "Forces Discount" had been deducted from the bill.
Cannot of course name the coffee company, but think Spain in conjunction with "Brava", "Blanca" or "del Sol".
Fair made my day it did - and guess whose barristas I shall favour with my custom in future!
