So back to the one thing that has been in my mind every time I’ve used the car so far, getting elec-trickery into it.


So this is a municipal charging station from near my hotel in Le Havre two days before I got the car, simple to use it I would need to have previously obtained a card from the town hall….so using this one is reduced to fantasy.

Here’s the one from Laon, you just need a fully charged phone, btw same price as petrol for a quick charge. I wasn’t expecting that.
Why the pictures of charging stations? Well we’re into day 3 of the quarantine and the car is resting. But we’ve given ourselves a real challenge we’re going to try to trickle charge from the house. “Challenge ?” You say. Well yes this only works when you plug in the charger without extension leads etc. “Piece of cake“ you say, well we are in England and I do have a French plug…….
I’ll keep you posted.
