We used to do a lot of Surgeres too. Hanging out and, often, box to Greece or Italy. Either way I could never decide whether it was better to go straight across to Macon, small twisty and hilly, or back up to Paris and down the boring motorway. Usually straight across won - better eating and better places to stop at night. Tacho? What were they for then?
That ferry was Greece I’m guessing Cliff - purely by the number of hitchies hanging about at the ramp.
