They swept the motorway !

They have these sweeper lorries that zoom along and sweep everything onto the hard shoulder.
It meant that after the storm the rocade was cleaner and clearer than normal.

However we couldn't take our usual road into Bordeaux and across the bridge to Cenon. All of a sudden we were diverted into little blocked back streets and it meant that instead of being about 15 minutes early we arrived at church a couple of minutes late, then had a jolly time trying to get the overhead projector to work.

Still, we have nothing to complain about. 1 000 000 homes are without electricity, many homes were flooded and 16 people have lost their lives.

Glad to hear you are safe.
