    You must have "snakes hands". You got to the keyboard seconds before I had corrected. I will be in your shade as usual, my easterly friend, how did you do in terms performance relative to PVGIS?

    I wish I could say I've kept them up to date, especially after the afford you went to. Alas, I am a couple of months behind inputting figures, as I rarely boot up laptop these days. Will try to make time over the weekend to catch up.

    I made 457 kWh in April (120 Os), but my FIT payment as a newcomer is about £68. A lot less than yours but still good.
