    3.5 Os. I had to export some power today: washing machine is broken and tumble dryer is idle. Domestic & General visits on Thursday.
    I have osteoarthritis in my hands so I speak my messages into a microphone using Dragon. Some people make "typos" but I often make "speakos".

    Been a poor start to June so far, fell just short of a TyphOOO both days so far. :(

    PS Where's Andy gone? I hope he hasn't electrocuted himself trying to put petrol in the new car!

    Bear in mind this is all made up nonsense and only relates to this thread, on this site, but here goes:

    2 O's is a Bond (double O 7)
    3 O's is a TyphOOO (you only get an OOO etc)
    4 O's is a Wink (4O winks)
    5 O's is a Hawaii (Hawaii 5O)
    6 O's is a Maiden (an over in cricket with no score or O score)
    7 O's is a Heaven (7th heaven)
    8 O's ....... not sure we have one for 8, but not sure anyone has managed an 8 either ...... any suggestions?

    No Hawaii today....:mad: only 3.64 O's....coffee.gif
    2.5 kWp PV system, SSW facing, 45 Deg Roof. ABB Inverter, Monitor: 'Wattson'.
    Reg. for FIT Nov 2011. "It's not what you generate; it's how you use it that matters". One very clean Vauxhall Diesel Sri, £30.00 Road Tax: B)

    Definition of 'O's = kWh/kWp (kWh = your daily & accurate Generation figure) (kWp = the rated output of your PV Panels).
