I shouldn't worry DBK last year I spent slightly more time out of the UK than in it. This year I intend to do the same (currently in Pau heading for Spain). I will spend the summer in my house in France and will be hopelessly over the 90 days in 180 by mid April.I don't visit for more than 90 days at a time but the restriction will mean I have to change how I do things. For example, I typically spend May and June in France, Italy, Spain or wherever then come back to the UK for July and August. We usually return in September and stay until the end of October but we will no longer be able to do this after we leave the EU completely. This is because July and August do not amount to 90 days so the clock for counting how long we have been there has not been stopped and it will still be including May and June. This means that at the end of September we will have to return to the UK as we would have reached the 90 day limit (May, June and September). The only way to get around this will be to return to the UK at the end of May and stay in the UK over June, July and August. It is not the end of the world but folk will need to keep a tally of the days they are in Schengen to avoid being caught out.
I don't have the slightest concern.
Macron is fighting his own people with tear gas and rubber bullets, the gendarmes are shooting dead terrorists in Paris, the border police are battling insurgency of asylum
seekers on the Italian border.
They are up to their armpits with Albanian drug gangs.
You, and me are not on their radar, just get your critair badge, don't speed, and enjoy all the pleasures France has to offer.
