Remember that there are many shops and offices closed today. There will be no public transport in Toulouse and it may even snow in some parts of northern France. The students will continue to block the universities and there will be processions in support of public services. The National Front (or whatever it calls itself now) will try as usual to hi-jack the memory of Jeanne d'Arc as the symbol of French independence and patriotism.
It looks like such a dull morning here that the spirit of Mayday seems an alien proposition, but we will make the most of it, won't we?
