That's just a stop. You usually see this of the side of the highway after an exit, and there will be a few other food options and gas stations available.

Real great flying from the US today.

Just to be clear, this wasn't voted down, it wasn't voted on prior to the state assembly going on summer recess.

The Brits were the largest economy in the world for the 19th century, and the largest in Europe until WW2, and followed up by the US. Being the largest economy means you get to keep your own internal standards and anyone who wants to do trade with you has to accept that. It's not a coincidence that the UK swapped to metric after integrating into the European market.
