Windmill everyone makes mistakes and journalists have the right to correct themselves. I have now read the magazine and think it is very informative.

Thanks for your advice though (not)

I don't know who Frenchcamper is, but my name is Paul Richardson and I DO work for Camping in France. I note that windmillblackpool refers to an article in Camping In France magazine thus:

"in one of the articles about driving on French motorways the journalist says that you cannot get fuel without a french credit card which is absolute nonsense and hasnt been the case for years"

As the journalist who wrote the article in question, can I bring windmillblackpool's attention to the actual wording, as he/she seems to have misread it. It reads:

"You will have to buy petrol during normal opening hours by the way: 24 hour facilities are card operated and won't accept UK bank cards of any kind."

And this is absolutely true. You can use a UK bank card during opening hours at the petrol station's checkout, but not in the 24hr automatic pumps - they will not accept them.

The full text of the article can be read online at http://www.campinginfrancemagazine.com/tripplanner

If windmillblackpool still thinks that the magazine is rubbish and a waste of £3.95 then if they return it to me (the office address is on the website) with their address I will personally refund the money direct to them.
