Thursday 17th August - Sillery

Crew was woken by the noisy French family on the next boat before 9 a.m. - this should be against the law!  Skip had a hyperactive morning.....cleaning the boat, mending the radio/CD player, four runs to Intermarche for diesel, then a walk to the restaurant to try and book a table for dinner, calling in to the supermarket on the way back!  Crew is exhausted and Skip was rather damp as he got caught out in a shower!   The bad news about the restaurant is that it has been closed since 14th August and does not re-open until 5th September - how the catering industry has changed since I was involved in it!!  So the galley for Crew again tonight!
After lunch Skip decided that Crew needed to stretch her legs so we went together to the supermarket for a change (Crew was getting anxious about the lack of vegetables in the fridge!).  So it was that Crew cooked chicken wrapped in bacon, ratatouille and spinach and potato cake for dinner......have always wondered why the French have lovely veg. in their markets and indeed, sometimes in their gardens but never seem to serve them in the restaurants - if they do they are not usually very good!
TV and bed.
