A sudden flood threatens a festive weekend
The Mother’s Day weekend is crucial for many establishments. In Nieuil-l’Espoir, near Poitiers, the restaurant La Bergerie was fully booked, with about sixty tables reserved.

The customers are notified and invited to park in a lot upstream of the flooded area. From there, they are taken care of by the tractor and trailer, and transported to the restaurant.
