Then this is going to interest you, a 100 euros is being offered.

“La Charente et la Charente-Maritime ont prévu un plan de soutien au tourisme qui prendra la forme de 10.000 bons d'une valeur de 100 euros offerts aux touristes qui séjourneront dans l'un des deux départements entre le 1er juillet et le 1er Novembre.”

“Dormez deux nuits, mangez au restaurant et visitez un site en Charente ou Charente-Maritime et recevez un chèque de 100 euros après votre séjour: c'est l'offre que ces deux départements proposent cet été pour soutenir le tourisme.”

I was thinking that now is the perfect time for the gendarmes to home in on brits driving UK registered cars, because in theory, at the moment there shouldn't be a single car in France with a UK number-plate.

So happy together: résidence principale in France, tax payer in France, car with UK licence plate in France.
