Quick- help before I make an arse of myself

Here I am in a Hotel Campanile in the South of France.

Pillows- check
Sheet- check
Duvet- check
Duvet cover- bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzt

Is this something weird and French? Should I go and mime "duvet cover" at the increasingly bewildered receptionist? Or simply pass out under the duvet and sod the cheese eating surrender monkeys.

And their wi-fi is crap. Reaches about as far as the bar. Am connecting via GPRS on my phone which is thankfully pretty good.

Some more info- I am also sat in my pants. Should I put trousers on before heading to reception with my duvet quandry?

Wrap yourself in your duvet, pants underneath, and go to reception and shout very loudly in a french accent.....


"I neeeeed zeeeee duvet coverrrrrr!"

That should do it.

First you need to great 'le frog receptionist' with Au Revoir and bung a monge tout in there somewhere. The old frogs like that.
