Has anyone actually seen anyone actually use (or indeed actually used one themselves) those ridiculous manky looking 'massaging' armchairs that seem to have infested every motorway services in the UK?

As far as I can tell they simply serve as trampolines for small children. Surely the company that installs them can't make any money; there has to be a better way to pay the mortgage?

I sat on one once. I was waiting for my wife to come out of the loo.

If you sit on them for more than about 20 seconds without putting money in them, an alarm goes off.

I have another question though - why do they have driving games in the mini-arcades in service stations?

I know. Who drives for three hours, decides to stop at the services for a break and then thinks "I know, I'll have a game of Outrun"?

I don't think so.

I just kept on sitting on the armchairs long enough for the alarm to go off. To annoy the people working in the service station shops.

I've done it too, put my pound in it and sat on it for about 15 seconds before deciding the friends children would have more fun on it (Which they did) and then waited in the Newsagents for the better half...

Children...?

Although why anyone plays arcade games anymore I have no idea. I don't think any have been updated since 1998.
