First long journey for us

[Bam Bam]

I can't charge at home, so I have a subscription with Ionity. I pay £10/month and pay 43p/kW,

Thanks for the reminder that EVs can work for those without home charging, using discounts.

I can't charge at home, so I have a subscription with Ionity. I pay £10/month and pay 43p/kW, AFAIK you can take this out for a single month. I used Cobham Ionity chargers last weekend, there are lots and lots of them. There are also some Ionity chargers near Lewes, about 20 miles away from Eastbourne (bizarrely - they are next to a Starbucks that used to be a Berni Inn, where I lived and worked, slightly before the last ice age)

Ditto. I pay 54p. I am lucky my council has been rolling out chargers everywhere. I have 6 lamppost chargers and 4 x 22kw in my street alone.

Doing this I'm still spending less than I was on my 2-litre diesel (it was 12 years old, and I loved it because the roof folded down)

Lot of good advice written before my 1p worth, I would only add, get your Electroverse card and have it all set up and try a fast charger out so you know it all works before you travel, will put your mind at rest.
