Learning all the time
Right staying put tonight. On a lovely little camp site. Started another link re heating and hot water. Will look in to that tonight.
Jobs we have done increased data on phones but not much else.
Need to go and buy a house pipe for water there wasn't one with the van and didn't think to bring ours. But this is why we are doing this trial run.

many many years! since I was a kid
don't forget a selection of hose adaptors to fit the various taps

If not already fitted get refillable gas cylinders and European fill adaptors

We are travelling down to Spain, through France and we have needed a longer extension cable and plug adaptors ( some plug in are 2 pin), these we eventually got at a large supermarket, but wasn't that easy to find. Also need a new filter for the sog toilet but that remains elusive. ( as do close neighbours ) ?

If you move most days like us, then you can take the van to the tap when you arrive and/or leave. The vast majority of the time we can get the van close enough to a fill point to use their hose, or our (relatively short) 5m length of garden hose with a hozelock end connector on it, which fits quite a lot of fill points. And we've also got 2 different sized threaded tap to hozelock adaptors to cover us for most other tap outlets. The hose is short enough that it's easy to quickly coil up by hand and bung in it's zip bag with the adaptors.

If however you tend to stay stationary on sites for more than a couple of days, then watering cans can make more sense. They also make good backup. We've got a small collapsible watering can that we occasionally have to use to top up the tank. Conveniently it collapses into the gap left in the centre of the hose coil and it too goes in the same zip bag.
