Great video guys. Can't believe it's still miserable!! Oo I love Bonne Mama jam! The best. And a bit of sun too! Oop spoke too soon! Wow that viaduct is amazing! Finally..... summer!!! At a price! That's it now hopefully summer all the way and into Spain where is isn't as expensive!!! Cheers 🍻
Hi There Mrs Slaw Slaw and Doggies , Hope All are well , Great video , And a nice looking campsite , And you had sun 🌞 , Billie and Jesse looked Happy There , your Dinning outside under the awning looked perfecto , yes a Great place there , so Thanks for sharing , Take care All , 🌄👍👍
Great vlog Mr & Mrs Slaw, made us laugh. M. Slaw picked a great site! We decided to stay here & what a little gem! Relaxed, friendly typically French campsite, we love it. Market day Saturday, can’t wait to visit the town tomorrow & find the restaurant with The Comedian hopefully. We are going to try the campsite restaurant tonight. It has the potential to be a brilliant site, just needs a little TLC, can’t complain at £14 a night though. Looking forward to your next vlog. Safe Travels x
I’ve added Pezenas to the list - looks like a great little town. I worked in Albi in 1997 and have often thought about going back to the area as it holds good memories. I also need to remember to pick up a bottle of the vinaigrette that you have next time I’m over the channel. Another fab video 🥂
Blimey Slaw you nearly had to get yourself another woman😂😂 I must say that Slaw picked a cracking campsite saving 32 euros a night👍 the French always seem to be so friendly, and that town was just so picturesque. Looking forward to the next video already ❤
Great vlog again Mr and Mrs slaw some quite interesting and scenic places you passed through great content until the next vlog take care the gowerz Portsmouth xx ❤
wow!! What a coincidence, the owner of the restaurant you ate at is an old accuentance of mine I haven't seen in years,up until about five years ago we had a holiday home in Weymouth ,he left to go back to France years ago ,but didn't say where ,I know what rout I'll be taking next year. I'm glad you found the sun at last❤❤❤
Thanks to the Slaws for another great VLOG regarding places to stay en route. I think that it is important that people understand the price variation on sites depending not only on facilities but also location. Once again very many thanks.
Surprise, surprise Slaws. No mention or film of the Petit Pate de Pezanas. brought there by Lord Clive of India. We tried them, very good, but at the tourist trap price of course!!!! Happy travels.
Did happy Harry tell you to turn the camera the other way? 😆 I worked on the Cote d'Azure back in my youth, including Beziers. Lovely part of the world.
He was more than happy to be filmed 🤣 We spent many a year in Vias Plage when our kids were little and have visited some beautiful places in the area 🚍☀️
Great video as always, the campsite looked great , the guy at the restaurant made it , he was funny, don't you just love Millau , first did it on a motorbike quite a few years ago , my wife is not so keen on heights lol
For scenic views that is one of the the best motorways in France I like the altitude boards that tells you how high you are .I said to the wife if you see one that says 1500 metres we will find a park up and we can join the mile high club ,but she weren't buying any of that was she
Are you aware of the famous staircase locks on the canal at Biezers. Their car park caters for motorhomes. You also have a vineyard close by that allows motorvans and you can samply the goodies. Lovely area on the route of the Canal du Midi. Good video.
Only into this one at 3.16 and already a couple of great comments/decisions. Slaw at 2.03 being a master of diplomacy and the decision at 3.16 to take the peace to get out of the rain. Yes, the RN's are great when the weather is fine but in the inclement periods use the Peage, and pay of course< to get to the sun, or wherever.
We utilised “Pensioners” rates at La Gaviota, not as though you guys are old enough! Looking forward to what you get up to while your there as we are back in September ❤ Andy, Bev & Beatrice
I see you have the same French jam that we can buy in Australia. I heard a story that the jam maker/company/family were very supportive of the French Resistance during the war.
@@TheSlawsAdventures - Is Bonne Maman the anti-Nazi jam? A Holocaust survivor tells a fellow shopper she only eats that jam because company’s owners saved her family from the Nazis, but secretive French family isn’t commenting By GABE FRIEDMAN and PHILISSA CRAMER 18 February 2021, 4:48 am 17 Illustrative: This June 9, 2014 photo shows a grilled cheese made with Bonne Maman fig preserves in Concord, N.H. (AP Photo/Matthew Mead) Illustrative: This June 9, 2014 photo shows a grilled cheese made with Bonne Maman fig preserves in Concord, N.H. (AP Photo/Matthew Mead) JTA - The heartwarming story has been hard to miss: A law professor is shopping at his local grocery store when sees an elderly woman struggling to get her favorite jam from a high shelf. Why is it her favorite? “I am a Holocaust survivor,” she says. “During the war, the family that owns the company hid my family in Paris.” Tens of thousands of people - at least - have shared the story since it began circulating on social media this weekend. It has prompted countless people to vow to buy only Bonne Maman-brand jam, whose 26 varieties are almost all kosher, in the future. But is Bonne Maman, with its can’t-miss red gingham jar lids, really an anti-Nazi jam? Connectome Keep Watching Bomb shelters make good neighbors 00:00/07:10 The company, whose founding families are famously secretive, isn’t taking any credit for the activity of its founders’ families during World War II. “The family prefers to maintain privacy and does not comment on inquiries about personal matters,” Bonne Maman told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency in a statement. ADVERTISEMENT Michael Perino, the St. John’s University professor who originally posted the story on Twitter, told JTA that the incident happened on Sunday morning in his northern New Jersey grocery store. He said he was surprised by the woman’s composure and ability to shop alone at her age, which he estimated to be late 80s or early 90s. He didn’t ask for her name, not wanting to pry. “It was a beautiful moment,” Perino said. “When she gave the explanation, you know, it’s one of these things where your kind of your heart stops for a moment, because it’s totally unexpected.” Bonne Maman, founded in 1971 by members of the Gervoson family, is based in Biars-sur-Cère, a town in southern France. Neither the town nor any of its inhabitants are listed on the registry of “righteous gentiles” - non-Jews who rescued Jews from the Holocaust - that is maintained by Yad Vashem, Israel’s Holocaust memorial and museum. Nor is anyone with the name of the company’s founding families in the database, which is comprehensive and thoroughly researched but does not necessarily include every possible person who might be eligible for it. At least one person has publicly described his family’s experience being sheltered in Biars-sur-Cère: A New Jersey man named Eric Mayer told the Jewish Standard in 2016 that he and his siblings had hidden there after leaving their parents behind in Germany. He even noted that the town, which he said had 800 people at the time he lived there, later became the home of Bonne Maman. Some internet sleuths seeking to verify Perino’s grocery store encounter - or at least to rebut skeptics - noted that Mayer told the Jewish Standard that his sister had been with him in Biars-sur-Cère, suggesting that she might have been the mystery shopper. But the story says that Mayer’s sister died prior to 2016. ADVERTISEMENT The Town Hall of Biars-sur-Cère (Père Igor/Wikimedia commons) Certainly, other Jewish children could have wound up in the same town. Many Jewish children who were being sheltered in Paris were moved to southern France after the Nazis invaded the capital city. Biars-sur-Cère is about a four-hour drive from Le Chambon-sur-Lignon, the French mountain town that is one of two municipalities honored collectively by Yad Vashem for its efforts to save Jews. There, about 2,500 Jews received shelter during the war. (One of them left the town more than $2 million when he died at 90 on Christmas Day.) But Perino’s story says the woman said her family was sheltered in Paris, more than 250 miles from Biars-sur-Cère. Jean Gervoson founded the company with his brother-in-law, Pierre Chapoulart; the Chapoulart family was already established in Biars-sur-Cère by the war. Gervoson died in 2018, his wife Suzanne in 2015. Could the self-identified bubbe in the grocery store be confused about where and by whom she was sheltered as a child more than 75 years ago? Could the Gervoson or Chapoulart families have hidden Jews from Nazis and never gotten credit for it? Could Perino - who later thanked those who added details he had not - have asked a few more questions before posting his story to Twitter? Yes, yes and, well, yes. But for some who appreciated the story, the facts may not matter. “Please don’t make me fact check the Bonne Maman story,” Jennifer Mendelsohn, a journalist who is widely known for her genealogy sleuthing online, tweeted on Wednesday morning. “Can’t it be like Santa Claus?”
Hello guys. Sun at last. Brilliant vlog as usual. Campsite wasn’t to bad. We ended up with at least 11 days of sun in the end. We booked a site in Benicassum north Spain 23.5e a night with electric in November mind.
Thank you! Great to hear you got some sun☀️ The Spanish campsite worked at €43 per night, which included being on a premium pitch (much bigger and nicer than being in a row with other campers) Also, the location of the site was absolutely stunning. We didn’t want to be in a typical Spanish seafront town with a ‘front’ of bars and shops etc. Stay tuned for the next episodes 😉
Glad you finally found some sun, although at the moment of watching this on hols in Cotswolds it is more like nov outside , is this really june ? come back sun , enjoying your adventures xx

Hi, if you leave your wiper blades on the windscreen in the baking sun, the rubber can stick to the glass. Like your windows on the motorhome when they haven’t been opened for a while. Lifting them prevents this 👍🏻
Hi, not sure why that is happening for you? We use a professional editing suite and spend over 10 hours on each vlog before publishing. This includes compounding clips and setting sound levels so they don’t peak and trough. We also played it through twice before publication to check the sound and it was okay. Since publication we have watched the vlog on both a TV and a mobile device. Again, all sound levels were fine. Sorry your experience wasn’t worth the 11 hours we have spent on the vlog.

As a former foreign currency exchange geek, I would be interested to know how the FX is done at those petrol pumps. Is the exchange done by your bank (so would appear as such on a statement) or is it done by a third party, then deducted as GBP from your bank account? Cheers,
Hi, it shows as ‘Carrefour’ on the bank statement with the cost in GBP. As the machine didn’t accept our Revolut card (which is pre-loaded with euros) we had to pay with our UK bank card, so there was a foreign currency fee too.
you need a LHD rv better in eu than a RHD as im british i drive a LHD scania S770V8 44ton truck but on spanish plates as my son its his bussiness i gave him he has 75%i have 25% so i only drive part time now back to spain and uk

We decided to stay here & what a little gem! Relaxed, friendly typically French campsite, we love it.
Market day Saturday, can’t wait to visit the town tomorrow & find the restaurant with The Comedian hopefully. We are going to try the campsite restaurant tonight.
It has the potential to be a brilliant site, just needs a little TLC, can’t complain at £14 a night though.
Looking forward to your next vlog.
