Friday 1st June - Digoin

We decided to stay another day in Digoin in order to get Aphrodite shipshape again.  Unfortunately around ten o’clock the lady in the Capitainerie told us we would have to move as our space was reserved.  Skip did a recce and said he thought there was a space further back where we could get power and much needed water.  So we slipped our lines and went for it.  It was a very awkward spot to get into, involving some chicanery and, indeed, as we approached we spotted a notice that it was also reserved!  Plan B was to moor further along the Bank with no facilities.....so care with the water supply was called for.
Whilst Crew changed the bed and sorted out the guest beds, Skip set to work on cleaning the outside of the boat. We had a leisurely lunch followed by a fairly long siesta.
When we were moored outside the Capitainerie we got no TV reception at all thanks to a big tree beside us but now we had moved, we got a pretty good reception so I guess, every cloud, etc.......!  Crew was very happy to be able to watch Come Dine with Me again!!
We had duck, sauté potatoes and veg. for dinner but we’re very disappointed with the flavour of the duck......it’s normally very tasty!
We watched TV instead of a DVD and bed.
