All very quiet here, weather miserable. But they're out daily on our local junction blocking the access to Chamonix Valley, notably to all the lorries that use the route to get to the Mont Blanc tunnel to Italy. But drove to the airport a couple of weekends back and both tolls were kept entirely open by the Gilets Jaunes. Free passage!!!
 However, forgot we had the beeper on the windscreen and we were charged anyway  Monsieur Le Grenadier

French supermarkets on the other side of the border are now often almost empty. Their truck supplies these days are very erratic. Inconvenient to us cross border shoppers, but this ongoing situation is costing billions in losses to the French economy.
Eric You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation. http://youtu.be/yVRlSsJwD0o https://youtu.be/vmPr3oTHndg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GtzTT9Pdl0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABqKPz28e6A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLZ49Jce_n0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvAsz_ilQYU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8tMHiX9lSw https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dxwjPuHIV7I https://vimeo.com/201482507 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSixqL0iyHw |

And any resemblance to actual or past events would be purely coincidental, of course...
