Get your Twix on the A66

Caroline on A66

We’ve our own Route 66 here in the UK.  It’s an arterial road that adopted the route of a Roman road across the north of England, linking the Cumbrian coast at Workington  with the North Yorkshire coast at Middlesborough.  It’s rather more infamous for being closed when the first winter snows fall on Stainmore than any iconic song lyrics but never the less, it’s a significant road in the lives of many travellers for few will be unaware of Sedbury layby at Scotch Corner. After all, it’s where we “get our Twix on the A66” (or preferably a bacon butty!)
