Home again

Finally, we are back at home. The day was not as eventful as yesterday. 

I woke early this morning to find a charger and charge our car.  I found one that was being used by a mobile home, another which appeared to be residential and finally one in an industrial estate.   Had hoped it was part of the nearby shopping centre, but no such luck.  At first I could not work out which charger to use as it was confusing on the app, but by a process of deduction I sorted it,  we got enough charge to get to a supercharger closer to home, but in Belgium.  I drove in a more energy conserving manner and we had charge to spare when we got there.  This time, my wife visited the nearby truck stop so that I would have something to eat other than Cadburys eclairs!  It did not take long to get the charge needed to get to Calais and we were off.  Again we returned to the supercharger that we had used on Saturday, but this time we got a lot more charge.  One more charging stop on the M20 and we got home with 9% charge, though this time I was not as stressed as I was in France on Saturday! 

It was great to see the kids again and I soon crashed and had to rest a lot.  But it was a long drive, and one far less stressful than before,
