Final question........ I have a Crit air 3 sticker on my screen, will this be enough to cover me against breaking any emission rules or fines?

It is many years since we last stayed here and we remember it as a campsite many used as a stop over on the way south. People used to…
It's that time of year and we are going to try Italy again, having had to abandon it last year due to floods and landslips. This year we have decided to travel down through Switzerland and visit the lakes starting with Maggiore. Hopefully then we will travel across to Venice stopping off at some of the other lakes on the…
