With the tantalising prospect of two bank holidays this month, offices across the capital are infused with the holiday spirit as the countdown to the summer holiday season begins.  If you can resist the lure of B&Q’s reduced price emulsion, why not take your new-found joie-de-vivre for a spin in the sunny playground of the French Riviera.   For those who’ve already done the glitzy casinos and palm-tree lined promenades, an all-together different city break experience awaits you just a few miles along the coast.
