Update!

Just a little update on the aftermath of the Apero Géant I talked about last night...

10,000 people turned up
93 people needed on-site medical attention
57 people were hospitalised
1 person died
40 people were arrested for drink driving
30 people were arrested for other reasons

It started at 7pm and the police didn't start moving people on till 4.30 in the morning. What an insane idea. We saw a bit of news footage of it on TV today and literally it was just LOADS of people sat around on the floor in the cold drinking supermarket own brand spirits straight from the bottle. Really did not look like much fun and to be honest, a little bit trampy. Apparently it's a country-wide thing the do to celebrate this particular bank holiday but last night Nantes broke the record for the most people ever attending (joint with Montpellier). Weird weird.
