Saturday 11th September 2010 Cercy-la-Tour. Day off

Hot and sunny. We still had an ex-hireboat called 7à8 moored right in front of us plus a small speedboat cruiser. The ex Nicholls that had been here since before we landed left. Mike went to post letters at La Poste and picked up some bread on his way back. I gave him a hand by catching swarf in the dustpan while he drilled bigger holes for the new bolts that lock the side door hatch. The originals were British size and the new ones were metric, hence bigger holes. After lunch Mike watched the F1 qualis from Monza Italy. Still no call from Paul – Mike tried leaving a message on Neil’s mobile phone. We could think of no other way of contacting Paul.
