Wednesday 21st October 2009 Cercy-la-Tour. C. du Nivernais

12.8°C Much milder night. Grey clouds and rain. The Mayor wasn’t in again. The young secretary was sorry but the EDF hadn’t been in touch either. It started to rain on the way home. It poured with rain all afternoon so we played PCs. Rain eased off. The pillows and the bed below the window were soaking wet - the window had leaked. An unexpected job for next day!

3.1°C Cloudy with a few sunny spells, chilly breeze. After lunch we went to Champvert to see the Mayor again. Her secretary was there but she was only there mornings. She said to call in to see her at nine the next morning. Mike went out with the camera to take photos of the weir and an old stone mooring quay on the little river Canne which joins the Aron a few metres in front of our moorings.

-4.7°C Another very cold night, even with the central heating on low and one panel heater on the temperature in the cabin dipped down to 13.9°C, but we were warm enough under the duvet! Sunny, chilly day spent doing minor repairs to the boat and car, getting them ready for winter.
