Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;
With the possible exception of ClaireÃ.
Let me set the scene. Thursday morning is Dale's day off and 2nd in command, Claire is handed the burden of command. After glancing at her watch she realised it was 8.30am that she was late for breakfast. After getting up and racing downstairs she realised that no one else was up. The kitchen was locked and no sign of any guests wanting food. She raced back upstairs franticly knocking on all the staff rooms trying (and succeeding) to wake everyone up including Dale. Then the realisation of the night before dawned on her. In a drunken haze she had put her watch on upside-down. The time was actually 1.30am. Ooops! Now Claire the Big hands pointing to the 1 and the little hands pointing to the 6.
* I know the ISBA isn't a house it's a chalet hotel but I could find anything to rhyme with it (except ballet)
