SHMBO won’t let me cook bacon and sausages in the van. Apparently it’s too messy and it makes the van, her clothes and the bed STINK. I can’t emphasise the word ‘stink’ as much as she does!

So I bought an outside cooker, not a bbq!

Two x Efoy 5 Litre fuel cartridges.
 
Ordered the Pass'Etapes card for the Camping-Car Park aires. €4 for the life long card and topped up with €10 to start with. We are off to France next month and I'm sure we will frequent a few of these, if we don't find the usual free stop overs. The card comes with a good (ish) map where their aires are and if required, I can book one to guarantee a place.

We stayed at a Pass'Etapes parking spot in Saint Suzanne, near Le Mans. We had no idea what it was about before we arrived, but we'd seen the site in All the Aires and it looked good. Took me a while to realise that I needed to buy a card, then add the night price, but it was clean, well spaced and functioned well. The village is lovely, and I recommend a visit. Now I need to download the app for Pass'Etapes...

Don't you have to pay extra to be able to book?

Not too sure to be honest. If so, we will have to wing it like normal, but the blurb that came with the card and on line wasn’t very clear.

Yes you do. 20€ if you register by Internet or 24€ by phone. I think that is per year, not one off, but may be wrong on that.

There was a €24 add on option when I bought the card, so I think you are correct.

Not all this week, but, 2 reclining chairs (swmbo already wants to change hers as she can't get back up after reclining), (at Norfolk show) a 6 post windbreak, carpet for under the windout awning, paella dish for the cadac, a 7m flagpole and flag, 2 screwdriver sets (I just can't resist), a bottle of gin that changes colour when tonic is added (already history), a carpet for the cab of the van, and one of those vibrating massage things that has actually cured my persistant Knee pain after one week of use. I'm sure there's probably more that I've forgotten, probably due to the gin. ?

I went to order one of those last week but I'm sure it said €4.10 for postage, was I wrong?

I ain't tight but €4 postage for something I can get from the machine without, no contest.

There was a charge for postage etc, but still chose this option as many were / are still having snags at the machine point of entry, so for ease, this was an acceptable payment.
 
A pair of Givi bark busters
16t front sprocket to get even higher gearing

A wise move to get the card before traveling. There were no end of people struggling to buy the card at the machine, even the French, on the aires we stayed on. One German had managed to obtain 4 cards before phoning the helpline and getting in.
 
Figaro ... It really is a front sprocket ! I replaced the 15t with a 16t
 
fiamma 3m privacy room with clip system poles for £50 guy just wanted to get rid.
shame my f45 is 3.5m on the look out for some kind of extension front panel to make it fit.
 
window & frame rubber extrusions.
brake winding kit.
