SteveR & myself missed all the disruption by the look of it, we're in Bordeaux tonight & after a sumptuous/ overindulgent petite dejeuner will be Pyrenees bound. Any news on Larrau pass?

Sounds like you are having the best journey so far.
The Pass over Larrau is still closed, so I would use the Col Pierre St Martin, this one is definatley open.
Hope the weather is ok, but you may get a bit of rain as you cross the Pyrenees.
Good luck.
