	Dont quite know how we got onto this from "Australian President causes a stir" but avoid Paris like the plague and if you are looking for somewhere to stay halfway, pm me.

	Well we did manage two pages on what was essentially a non-story so that wasn't too bad I agree about avoiding Paris, it's horrendous and going through really doesn't save time and I would definitely recommend avoiding toll roads as they are so expensive.

	Thanks Pondgirl and Ian,I haven't thought of your route pondgirl I will check this route I have been in the Viehla tunnel area climbing years ago, is this the N260 road down to Pont de Suert ? Ian I will try to sleep in back of van if there is any space left LOL !!!! I am also hoping to bring roofing sheets down with me as there is quite a difference in price and the wifes over the moon that all the stuff I've been hoarding for years will finally been gone

	N230, I think. We've done it a couple of times now, there and back, and stayed overnight in Perigueux (having arrived in Calais at 9am ish) we've usually arrived in Tortosa at about 6 or 7 the following evening I think. It's a lot less miles/km than going via Perpignan, Barcelona etc but probably best if you have a GPS or a reliable co-pilot
