Yesterday’s journey from Turku to Helsinki was a short one with a quick charge and a longer one at a Tesla charger. Total charge for the day 39 kWh, cost £15.11 and distance 103 miles.
Thursday’s journey was from Helsingborg to Stockholm. The Temperature in the morning was 12c plummeting our m/kWh. So we made one quick stop at an Ionity charger and two longer stops at Tesla chargers. Total charge for the day 72 kWh, cost £21.77 and total distance 344 miles.
Yesterday’s journey was a long one from Hamburg to Helsingborg in Sweden. We charged 4 times including in Helsingborg in preparation for today’s trip to Stockholm. Total charge was 90 kWh at an average of 33p all on Tesla chargers. Total cost £29.70 and we travelled 354 miles.
Tomorrow is one of our longest drives we travel from Hamburg (Germany) to Helsingborg (Sweden) via the Storebælt bridge en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grea… and the Øresund bridge en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Øres… a total of 354 miles.
Quiet day today exploring Hamburg, left the car at the hotel and used the very reasonable priced public transport €13 after 9am for a ticket covering both of us.
Todays drive was from Cologne to Hamburg 267 miles we had two charging stops one on a non Tesla using Octopus Electroverse at 50p per kWH, topped up with 6.6 kWh and the other at a Tesla Charger at 34p per kWh, topped up with 33 kWh. Total cost £14.52 mastodon.social/@Hobbs/11255…
We’re having a quiet day driving wise today only 37 miles as we’re heading off to Phantaisia Land. mastodon.social/@Hobbs/11254…
If you intend to travel in Europe a Tesla subscription at £8.99 is really worth considering. It’s saved us about 30% on the normal Tesla price for non Tesla vehicles. Even without the discount Tesla charges will save you money. mastodon.social/@Hobbs/11254…
We charged 3 times today, Enigie at Le Shuttle which was free thanks to Electroverse, Tesla at Lokeren Belgium 30p per kWh and Tesla at Heerlen Netherlands 20p per kWh mastodon.social/@Hobbs/11254…
Arrived in Cologne about 8pm having traveled 280 miles and charged 83.5 kWh for £15.11 😎 mastodon.social/@Hobbs/11254…
Charging on a Tesla charger in the Netherlands that charges 20p a kWh to fully charge the little Corsa-e would come in at £10 or just under 5p per mile. We really need to look at the cost of public charging in the U.K. On a Gridserve charger £39.50. mastodon.social/@Hobbs/11254…

For those interested in getting an electric car and have worries about range follow our 3000 mile journey to Helsinki and back in our little Vauxhall/Opel Corsa-e. mastodon.social/@Hobbs/11254…
Here’s an example of a supermarket misleading consumers in this case @Tesco doing straight in front of you. The 90g tin of coffee would never of cost more than the 140g. This just makes people distrust supermarkets more. @WhicUK
Been away for a couple of days in Kielder on a Star Camp decided to leave the DSLR at home and have a play with with the iPhone. The following image is shot in RAW on a tripod using a @peakdesignltd mobile creator kit and then processed in @captureonepro #iPhone15ProMax

Has Rishi Sunak misunderstood the meaning of net zero? Net zero scrutiny of these major policy announcements. Net zero debate in Parliament. Net zero accountability of Ministers.

Here’s what “massively over-delivering” looks like, Rishi Sunak.

Parliament must be recalled and should sit tomorrow- Sunak’s blatant and cowardly sidelining of Parliament cannot be allowed to stand

What planet is @RishiSunak on? He’s literally promising not to implement imaginary policies that were never proposed in the first place
