A
Road Less Travelled

The
news on Television is still dire, with some major roads now being
blockaded. The ongoing threat of a general strike is spreading and
expanding to include the railways and the power generation centres.
Fuel supplies continue to be problematical. There are thousands of
commercial vehicles stranded on the roadside that have now run low or
run out of fuel.
Today
another British motorhome came into the 'Aires'. The couple had
crossed over to Le Havre and then found the local (River Seine) A29
bridge in Le Havre was barricaded shut by protestors. This created a
two hour detour along the A131 and then the A13 before they could get
back on their planned route south. The couple are making their way
down to northern Spain. However, on the enforced detour they were
lucky to find a fuel station that had just taken in a delivery and so
were able to fill their almost empty fuel tank.
