Driving and Lunch

Saint Jean-Baptise

People occasionally say to me that the French are crazy drivers and drive too fast, but it's not something I've really noticed, but then today I think I've figured it out. They only drive fast at lunchtime. Certainly around Dinan, 12'o'clock strikes and they all drive flat out to get home for lunch. The rest of the time, there's no real hurry, but lunch is VERY important, and when you've only got a 2 hour lunch it's best to make to most of it :-)

These are our experiences of running a gite business in Brittany, France. A gite is the French equivalent of a country holiday cottage. French culture, language, taxes and bureaucracy. Find out about our gites using the links on the LHS. This is our fourth season (2006) and we are looking forward to the summer. Stories about the road to this point will be added in due course. Renovation nightmares, builders, stress, schooling etc. Stay tuned.
