Driving to France

[Jonzjob]

If you are on the Autoroutes then it's business as usual, but if you do find yourself at one of the 24/24/7/7 self serv stations then you will find that most of them will only accept French cards. It is changing, but it's taking time.

Which Sunday, please don't say the 12th if you are going down the middle!

Why not the 12th ??....what happens on the 12th. We're coming over 30th August....Calais to Le Bugue to see the wife's cousin

Looks like the Sunday will be OK after all. The same for your trip too?

What's wrong with the 12th[8-)][8-)] ??????

I mistakenly thought that being the weekend before the 14th it would be VERY bust, but according to Bison Futé it won't?

The 11th will though if you are heading South from Paris by the lok of it!
