What's on Charlie and Me this week?   
the previous 2 Fridays were stop 1 & 2 of the French Connection 2024 tour & this Friday stop 3 on out French Connection is Il De Re 

 

 

 

Products, Gadgets, Tips & Camping hacks: 

 

Some great tips here from Dean on tour in the South of France 

Hey guys, 

Greetings from the South of France.  Near Narbonne.   

We've been on the road a month and apart from a low branch incident we're having a great time.  

 

Before I left I bought a 2000 watt double electric stove. A portable handy little one. I got it in Sound Store Waterford.  €50 I think. We've been mainly on campsites using our ACSI card. Roughly 20 a night in Spain & France. Because we're mostly on campsites we're mostly plugged in so this stove is getting some use. Even boiling our whistling kettle. I bought a gas bottle in Spain when I arrived. It's the same connection in Ireland. You can opt to buy the bottle without a return contract and it's about €20 cheaper. I won't be back in Spain so I opted for this. Repsol is a major petrol station over there. That's where I got it.  

 

The stove will pull 8 amps if both hobs are on fully but even if you have a 6amp hook up you could have both hobs on 70% and you'd be fine on 6amps and plenty hot to cook.  That's my main tip so far. Save a bit of gas and try not change bottles too often as they are different in most countries as well as the green aspect of cooking on electricity.   

 

All the best lads, love the show!
