This is a really naive question guys but what was the name of the Routiers where everyone stopped just off the Autoroute at Macon Nord?

Just of Macon Nord is the BP truckstop which i am sure your not on about! Are you thinking of the Bakehouse!!

Bake house rings a big bell. There were two Routiers on the right and the Brits used to use the first one I think. As I’m going back to the early seventies my memory is somewhat blurred!

I’m planning to go down that way on a recce in early September but the last time I was in France, about two years ago, I found that half of the old Routiers had closed. very sad!

I think the 2 your thinking of Jazzandy, were at Pont D’ain a couple of klik’s before you turn left to go up Cedon.

Hullo Andy or Arfer,
I would say definitely the Bakehouse is the place that you mean, that was the place in those times. The owner M.Raymond was an Anglophile, loved us and was always good company, he was the Mayor of St.Cyr, that was the hamlet where the Bakehouse was. If I see you in September I shall buy you a verre de Rouge, I am off to CZ and H, must have another look in the Hotel Wien, then back through Italy and France.
Cheers, Archie.

Hullo all,
My mrs., has just retuned from a trip to her family in Brasil. She brought me back a little present, some balloons all in the Olympic colours, they looked really good in the box really colourful. I said I think I shall use the Gold one later. She didn’t look too happy at that, I said what,s the long face for ? She said why don’ t you use the Silver and come second for once. :blush: :blush: :blush:

Cheers, Archie.
