Tomorrow…….

In Sedan (look it up yourselves ) after leaving Hayling Island at 0700 with the lad / door to door it’s been 350 miles - my maximum has been 500 on prior trips - but two up with him 350 was too much - reckon for the rest of the week I’m going to do 200 a day max / broken up with some sight seeing etc / the odd longer lunch.

Tomorrow we head down the Meuse to Verdun - target bed tomorrow night Épinal then the Jura……
Luttle Sedan story; trying to find a filling station one night and pulled into a card only with no card just cash; a kind gent let me fill on his card and took my cash; other than that i know nothing about the place apart from crisscrossing the French Belgium border. You mention being killed; the Mrs was ready for killing me; :D

A good decision to cut down on the daily mileage.

Take some time, see some ‘stuff’ along the way. There are no medals handed out.

On a jaunt like this, I like to stop (early in the day) at a supermarket and pick up a sandwich / water for lunch. That way, I can stop as and when I fancy, not necessarily in a town and not have to hunt for a decent looking cafe or restaurant.
 
In other news - some of you know my grandson is special - as such we have, with his agreement a tracker on his phone….

Now this tracker has all sorts of alerts……

It’s been reporting speeds to my wife back in the UK - now we all know that speeding does not count in foreign… and I’ve managed to convince her that it was KM’s and the algorithms have got confused…..

While that may work with your wife I doubt Le Plod will be as easily convinced :augie
 
Verdun to Neufchateau is even better…
Although it being Sunday/ France is closed
