Our driving usually consists of taking the children and associated friends long distances to meet other scary looking youth. Then returning a few hours later to pick them up again. I think we de do this 'ferrying around' much more than local French parents because we have a teeny sense of guilt for dragging them here to live in a quiet rural community where very little happens, while their friends in the UK tell them all about the parties, shopping and impressive holidays they get up to.
