Valuable Volvo


Still struggling to get fuel for the barge. Waterside fuel stations are rare and a tanker delivery needs to be booked two weeks in advance - which is a bit of a headache.
Andy and I went to chat to a commercial barge skipper on the quay in St Dizier. He was very helpful and even phoned his own fuel supplier on our behalf – but to no avail.
Plan B : Andy loaded the faithful old Volvo with containers and after four trips to the supermarket fuel station purchased a whopping 800 litres of diesel.
