What have you done today with your Austin Seven
Been for a run around the block this morning, via St Ambroix, Bessèges, Robiac Rochessadoule and home via the Col de Trélis. Rochessadoule is a former coal mining village, and needless to say since the mines shut in the 1980s has remained a source of unemployment and industrial decay. The only redeeming feature these days is the weather, but even the camping municipal with its two swimming pools has closed.

I stopped off to take a few snaps on the way. The first one is the village school, whose building is dated to 1931 (I suspect that is when it was restored), a shot of some of the stone built industrial buildings opposite, and the biggest miner's lamp in the area with the former miner's terraced housing, now almost empty...
