Marseille is not Athens or Ajax where the atmosphere will be much milder .

Ajax fans forced an abandonment the other day and not long ago AEK threw molotov cocktails at opposition fans but Marseille are the sole target of your scaremongering due to "the type of people that live there".

So far it seems like the extent of the danger is some sign banging and @Herr Tubthumper risking burning his tongue on his bouillabaisse.

A few vans now on the Place De La Joliette, one of them looks like the DJ. Not sure if there will be a bar, may take along a few tinnies I guess.

I've no problem with the hearty breakfast but a pint of lager at 7 in the morning? Uugghhhh. Not for me Clive.
I remember getting the fast ferry from Newhaven to Dieppe in the late 90s and was staggered at the number of pints served with breakfast.
A lot of which came back up when we hit rough seas!! :sick::sick:

Did it early 90’s. The 1 day passport ! Seems weird now to think that existed.

Do they still sell CS gas in dieppe 🤔

He he, I’m horrified to hear @Herr Tubthumper is our first casualty, taken down by a French chef. I expected nothing else! :)

Hope everyone enjoying selves, but having lived in France, the riot police are to be taken seriously. Behaving like a chav in a built up area will land you in trouble, equally being near one.

Thanks for heads up will go for train instead !! Got 90 mins to get off this plane and onto the station
Also on route from Nice to Marseille in a Flixbus that was meant to depart the airport at 5am but finally rocked up at 6.10am. Luckily I have time to spare, hopefully those on later buses find things more punctual!

Yes. What’s the problem? Large group of shouty kids running about the streets late at night. f***ing wankers.
Being chased by tooled up police on horseback. Presumably you wouldn’t have done any running in that situation?

We have a spare sofa bed in our Air BNB in Marseile, the Wednesday & Thursday night if you are happy to chip in a bit🙂
Is this offer still available? Had a nightmare with booking some accommodation and may need somewhere to stay
