We are 3hrs from Agde. It's our annual pilgrimage without the kids.

A leisurely brekkie tomorrow (well in a few hours) and then across Millau and a quick sprint to the sea.

The S then gets a week of rest before the journey home.

I don't think you really want pics Lee lol.

Traffic very light.

Ian, Jamie seems keen to miss a day of school on the Friday so we can do JAE. He's been great this year so I don't see why we can't sneak him out for a day.

To add;

The toll tag that someone on here suggested we get last year continues to be a bloody brilliant thing!

No fumbling for change or cards, not even having to stop. Epic!

Oh and other foreign cars following us down the "T" marked lanes only to get stuck with a queue of French cars behind them never fails to amuse my evil side.

Lots of us going to France

I'm spending a week in St Mandrier then a week in a Villa just outside Nice. Unfortunately not driving down this year as the flights were booked before I got my S

If anyone is anywhere near Sollies Ponte a week tomorrow, there is very good fig festival... 'Fete de la figue' well worth going to, loads of figs from the local area and a really nice town

Enjoy!

Go under the Millau and up the Tarn Gorge a real gem of a run!
