Glorious sunny day here today!!
Washer on and nearly finished!!!
Should be over estimate for today again!! Thanks to removing that chimney. I still miss it though and the roof area doesn't look as nice with a black stove pipe sticking out of it on the east side. The removed chimney was on the south side!! It had to go though as it was shading 4 of the top 6 panels. Then later in the day after lunch it was still shading the very top panel. So definitely a job well worth doing. We will see what a difference it has made properly by the beginning of July when we have a full years reading since removing it!!

Meanwhile, not so far west of Daventry it's an astonishing good day. I am, at 15:53, a little short of my first 4 Os.
