Well another summer another Dan trip to France.
Just arrived in Reims - left London this morning starting with 90% charge. An easy drive to Folkestone (no traffic delays) so an easy top up back to 90% before getting on the Shuttle.
Drove somewhat above the French speed limit for a bit so stopped off a little earlier than planned for a splash and dash using the Octopus Electroverse card to sort payment before continuing on to my first destination- Reims.
A remarkable number of EVs on the Eurotunnel but otherwise a completely trouble free journey so far….

Nice, my wife gets range anxiety when it’s got 100miles left and we are nipping to town 5 miles away!
At least I’m getting 160miles full charge with the warmer weather
So a couple of days in Reims, one in Chantilly and now to Paris for some Olympics.
500 miles down so far, average of 310Wh/mole. It’s been incredibly hot and humid.
Two more charges done too - one on a 150kW Hypercharger using the Octopus Electroverse card at 42p/kWh and also a nice overnight 100% charge freebie as the hotel in Chantilly had a Tesla destination charger.

Judging by your pics Dan I wouldn't want to be caught unawares in the firing line. I remember seeing them watering at the 2012 Olympics. Presumably theres no shortage of water over there currently?
Back home - took 4 hours to drive from Folkestone to Twickenham. Ridiculous. But there we go - 787 miles, 239kWh consumed at an average of 303Wh/mile overall.
Charging in France not using the Tesla Superchargers was essentially flawless with the Octopus Electroverse card.
