 in response to emails and requests on Skype here is todays prices for all of you popping over to fill up 
they are local to my area and given the size of france there are regional differences 
the price all in euros per lit
of  gas oil deisel at the supermarket 1-21 and local garage 1-30
essence petrol 98 super 1-39 garage 1-48
 you have to do the exchange rates to this 
 however you look at it prices are up so more tax for the goverment

 glad to help can you tell us uk prices  But why is it cheaper to go uk to france than france uk  ???
 also the French are coming to the uk to shop sales clothes mucher cheaper than here and sales here are rgulatred by law as to time ect. 
 BUT i can get 5 lits of good wine for 7 euros and a bottle of good imported english gin is also 7 euros. 
 Warning the French are becoming a bit off of cheap trips to eurocity to buy cheap goods in the uk based shops  look out for burning tyres
 sorry getting of topic

Quick question - are French motorway service stations typically 24h? Am driving through the night to the Alps and don't really want to be stuck on the forecourt until opening time....
Cheers

Note limited hot food between 2300-0500
some stations near Big citys require you pay before the pump is turned on or you give then your ID card then fill up
uk nationals will have to give passport)
Fuel price update  1-09 at supermarket 1-25 normal station not going down as fast as the oil price Petrol is dearer here than gasoil no Gordon brown tax pollution
Have a safe journey mind the speed traps  as you will have to pay your fine in CASH
on the spot
