. Great if you wish to leave it at the airport when going off on
holiday.


If electric vehicle use increases (and I think it will) then it
will be come normal to have parking spaces with a charge point - as
you already find in quite a few places



When stopped at a service area in Germany in March, I noticed an area
specifically designated for electric cars that needed recharging.
Each parking spot had a chargepoint provided. Recharge the car, go
get a meal, recharge yourself.


There are some at the local Park and Ride stop. And I've seen them
around in a few other car parks and other places.

I saw one last weekend at a services on the M1. It could cope witn 2
cars at once. There seemed to be two different connectors, on single
phase and one 3 phase.

Nah. One is AC mains (up to) 30amp.

believe it or not 3 phase is also AC mains.

What you mean is single phase (domestic) AC mains
