That's true for the 2nd crossing as the tolls are on the Welsh side. The old one use a small west country bloke but as the payment processing has been outsourced he has to shout the CC numbers into a tin can that connects via a bit of damp string to one in India where the payment is processed and then gives the thumbs up to the bloke in the booth when he hears back that it's been approved.Originally posted by gingerjedi View PostNah it would be a small Welsh bloke, the Tafia wouldn't want an outsider operating their racket.
Listen carefully and you'll hear him... "No! Oi sed 1!"

There's a small ginger bloke from the westcountry inside the 'machinery' who writes your CC details down and drops the coins in.

There must be hopper inside dropping coins to activate the barrier, bonkers.
Wilmslowesque I know.
