Riom to Chaverny 156 miles, avoiding motorways. Onwards to Ouisterham tomorrow and should just about clock up 1000 miles in 7 days by the time we are home tomorrow night. Mostly hood down but tomorrow’s forecast for northern France suggests otherwise.

Saw a French registered TR3 this morning and an old Merc this afternoon, but otherwise nothing to wave at. Attracted a few toots, waves and thumbs up from French drivers over the last few days. Rather more than I get in the UK.
