well if the French are the same as here it is up to the tax payer to prove otherwise - a one sided affair and more often than not it is easier, cheaper and less stress to swallow and pay up. It always pays to keep proper accounts. Anyway there has got to be someone enterprising to start a park and ride legit business

think you are missing the point - anyway I will bite my tongue as I do think it is being petty when one is just trying to stimulate an enterprise that could be useful to quite a few people - no doubt you do not have the problem yourself about flights and parking

well well well, surprised that a few words has put people on top of their soap boxes and now preaching about illigal and illicit activity. I take those comments as being illicit accusations that I am inciting somebody or anybody do do wrong, Did I say anything about not declaring any such earnings, does cash in hand mean not to pay or declare tax - NO what it means it is cash, not credit cards, cheques or on account, and could be a nice little business with little risk as well as meeting a lot of other Brits (that is if you want too). Got some reactions and pretty fast too so good to see there is life and it is active out there, just lighten up a bit please

I like your idea too Chessie = must be some enterprising Brit nearby who could do with an extra few Euros or quid  especially these days. Could be a nice little cash in the hand business, pity I am not nearer as it is appealing. Anyone know anyone who would be interested? 3 to 5 people a week and got to be worth at least 25 euros so easily knock up 100 a week and very handy in the economic climate and terrible interest rates  

Hi actually I do not think that 20 - 30 euros for 2 weeks is quite cheap - costs that per day in the UK. However, having read this forum I am pleased to find out about the charges as I have been using Bordeaux airport as it is slightly neaer me. I am also thinking of commuting 2 weeks France and 2 weeks UK as I cannot afford to retire.  But I am concerned about leaving a car a lot of times as someone is going to notice and it is sure to get vadalised or stolen. Sounds to me if a few other people are going back and forth a lot that one could arrange a list of people wishing to participate in giving a lift to each other - anyone else interested? KenM
