Monday 27th May - Montbeliard

Hurrah!!  No early morning reveille for Crew.  A lovely cup of tea in bed!!  As the Capitainerie was closed yesterday, Skip went over to pay our dues.  He informed Crew on his return that he had booked us in for a week, as the berthing rate was a bargain......€63 including electric and water - who am I to argue!
Skip sent a mail to James to see what progress they were making but no quick reply came so he went to the supermarket whilst Crew set to work, cleaning the heads......not her favourite job!!  When Skip returned he’d had a reply from James to say that they had missed their allotted Channel crossing and were waiting to load onto the next.  We looked at each other........we had got the dates wrong!!  They will not arrive until tomorrow, as they are stopping over near Reims overnight tonight and will drive here tomorrow.  More time to get ship-shape, which is good.
The galley has never had such a complete clean (including the oven!!!) and we still have tomorrow morning to finish off - Aphrodite should be sparkling by then!
We just had a light supper on board and watched TV and the last episode of our DVD - The Unforgotten.  However we had bad problems with the power to the boat and had to keep putting our generator on in order to catch the last of the programme.  A visit to the Capitainerie is in order in the morning!
