Hello everyone ! Well, we agree, it's not a great wake-up call this morning. Our Brestois were not there in Gelsenkirchen against Shackhtar Donetsk (go ahead, say it three times in a row to see?). But let's rejoice in the essential: the Pirates are indeed qualified for the play-offs of the competition. And for fun (and why a little more?) they offer themselves a final prestigious league phase match against Real Madrid. It will certainly be without the Brazilian Vinicius (the other star of the team with Kyky), but all the same, it's not every day that we welcome a fifteen-time European champion team at home.
The icing on the cake, the Brestois treated themselves, last night, to a little international buzz, by having the honors of the Champions League program of the British channel CBS Sports, presented by the journalist Kate Abdo accompanied by former players Thierry Henry , Jamie Carragher and Micah Richards. The Breton club had the good idea of offering two SB29 jerseys to Thierry Henry and Micah Richards, who was quick to put them on on set. Nice PR move!
This Thursday, January 23, 2025, let's wish a happy birthday to the actresses Anne Marivin (51 years old) and Léa Drucker (53 years old), to the hosts Christophe Dechavanne and Laurent Boyer (both 67 years old), and to the American actor Richard Dean Anderson (75 years old), aka MacGyver.
If you know a Barnard, Emerentian or Ildefonse (you never know), now is the time to kiss them!
Today's weather: windy and rainy
Gusts of wind and showers will be on the program for this Thursday in the Brest region. The day will generally be marked by humidity as well as gusts of up to 75 km/h. The minimums are 5°C and the maximums are 12°C.
-Traffic in real time: Again
Once again, it is not easy to get around Brest. The Iroise bridge is congested again this Thursday, with a traffic jam reaching at least 3.5 km according to Bison Futé. Delicate situation also on the RN12, near the Le Saint factory and at the exit of the town of Gouesnou on the D788. It's not simpler on rue de la Porte, rue Camille-Desmoulins or avenue Franklin-Roosevelt in Brest.
Reminder of the day: the Brest metropolis ZFE will come into force on April 1st
Brest Métropole has communicated the perimeter of its Low Emission Zone (ZFE), which should come into force on April 1, 2025. Concretely, vehicles registered before 1997 will no longer be able to circulate in the city during rush hours. Bellevue and Pontanézen should be removed from the perimeter.
Attention dog owners, dog boarding facilities are already overrun this summer!
Reservations jumped even earlier than usual in dog boarding houses in the Brest region. They have very few places left during the summer holidays. A bone for latecomers.
Today's performance: Brest is still one of the most attractive cities
Even if it is overtaken by certain other metropolises of its size, Brest remains attractive thanks to its positive socio-economic indicators. A new ranking places it in fifth place nationally among cities in its category.
