Thoughts from the Mother Watch
Julie (or Jules as we all call her) has been the PSP Logistics victualler since leaving Gosport and has travelled with us on Leg 1 and Leg 2. Jules has also filled in on many Mother Watch duties when others have been unable to spend the time in the galley due to seasickness or other duties. The Mother role requires 2 members of the crew, one from each watch, to spend a 24 period tending galley duties and producing breakfast, lunch and evening meal for the rest of the crew.
In this blog, Jules outlines some of her observations and provides us with her thoughts on what can be a very demanding role onboard:
And lastly, Mothers should always remember that:
You can please some of the people all of the time, or all of the people some of the time. But you will never please all of the people all of the time!
