Thanks! Yes that's true - they told me it was the last cabin available on the ship, so I didn't really have any choice but to buy it, as the thought of being in that lounge overnight was not pleasant haha. Given the lack of people on the ship though I must admit its surprising they were all full.
I was quite surprised by the unexpected ship/date/route change. Did they offer you free transportation from Caen to Cherbourg? Otherwise they seem to have failed to fulfill their obligation to transport you from Poole to Cherbourg.
Actually this is a good point that did not occur to me. Fortunately in my circumstance my final destination of the trip was Caen anyway, with an enroute afternoon in Cherbourg, which I missed out seeing. But yes you are right, and nothing was offered that I recall.
Great adventure!!! I do think it a bit strong of BF to charge for the cabin tho as it was their change....

Scrubbers were fitted in 2012.

Ah great thanks for the info. I saw this somewhere on a forum, but not sure where now, about her going to Santander to have them fitted?
