Hello all,
We are currently flying in to Paris for the England game on the morning of the 16th. Plan is to get the train to Lens (unless we can get on a bus), then return train to Paris that evening to get the sleeper train to Toulouse. The one issue I'm having is what to do with our bags during the match, there doesn't appear to be any left luggage in lens, does anyone have any ideas?
cheers

Why haul your bags all the way to Lens, why not leave them in a luggage locker at a station in Paris? Otherwise, check if there are luggage lockers at Lille Europe station.

Thanks for the response, problem is that train out to Lens is from Paris CDG and back to Paris Austerlitz, because of the tight timings it's going to be difficult to try and leave the bags in Paris

sounds like a ballache. Just go in some throwaway clothes & buy some new clobber out there.

I presume that you are getting the Eurostar from CDG to Lille? There are luggage lockers at Lille Europe, although I'm not sure if they are 24 hour. Otherwise perhaps if decamp in a bar in Lens or Lille and you slip the barmaids a few euro's, they will look after your bags when your at the game.

That way you'll be able to leave your stuff on the bus. Loads cheaper than the trains by the look of it.

Hopefully he can, it would be ideal for us cheers
