A trip over the "Severn Sea " yesterday...mostly mud to be seen from the bridge on the way there.
With my brother..in his electric van, so we went through the middle of Bristol on the way to Wales for a change!
Good to see my youngest, the Carpenter and his family... although Woodchip my granddaughter was busy with her bestie there !! A leisurely day, a walk up to the allotment to see the chooks...
A meal together
And no need to stop on the way back as the EV was charged while we were there. 85 miles .. arrived back with 17% still in the battery..17 miles..not bad on a cold day.

Woodchip .. what a great nickname!
Being with your family -- that's the best!
Sharing a meal with family is always good fun.
85 miles and 17% still in the battery is great performance.
What model EV van gets this kind of mileage?
Sounds like a day well spent!
An EV would not be a great option where I live, but I can see the advantages. How do they charge for a fill up, i wonder?
Nissan ENV 200 . And after 7 years the battery is down to 93% efficiency
The display on the charging cable shows how many kWh have been used while charging, so son can work out how much was put on his power bill. It was about 70% full when we arrived, and you don't charge the battery to 100% as the last 5% is apparently inefficient charging and frequent charging to full doesn't do any battery any good.
