Hi,

I'm taking all the things above plus I'm going to make some chilli and some bolognaise before I go for the first 2 nights food.  Freeze it then hopefully it will be good to go when we arrive!

We normally buy jam, chocolate spread for the kids breakfast, its quite cheap there.

I was also considering taking a frozen homemade meal for our first night - i've kept stuff from thawing completely in our electric cool box before now for 2/3 days but always in this country, do you think we'd be ok doing the same going to france. Was also considering freezing some bacon and sausages for the first couple of days?

Any thoughts on this? thanks

We do exactly that, Pumpkin!  I take two frozen meals in a cool bag.  On the first morning in France I take out the first meal and let it defrost.  On the second day the second meal has defrosted inside the coolbox, but is still cold and ready for use.

It just makes our journey through France so much easier - when you arrive on site it's five minutes for 'steadies down, electricity in, water in, waste connected, table and chairs out, meal on, and glass of wine poured out'. 

We used to take bacon and sausages when our sons came with us, but don't bother now - we're not into cooked breakfasts any more.
