    Looks like everyone has been enjoying the sunshine, very quiet in here!

    A had a good time in Cheltenham, Beelzebub quietly excited after meeting tutors and pupils at UoG open day.

    Think we're off to Essex next?!

    More importantly, numbers!

    Yesterday we got 3.55 ho's whilst today have a much nicer 5.9 ho's. Just couldn't squeeze that last bit to a maiden, but good result all the same.
    4kWp, SSE, SolarEdge P300 optimisers & SE3500 Inverter, in occasionally sunny Corby, Northants.
    Now with added Sunsynk 5kw hybrid ecco inverter & 15kWh Fogstar batteries. Oh Octopus Energy too.

    Yesterday felt like the sort of day where I would have done much better. There must have been cloudy periods. Ended up with 5.29 Os.
    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".

    Visiting Uni's for my second born - first is Lucifer!
    If you knew them, you'd understand the names!!!

    Fri and Sat in Cheltenham at Univeristy of Gloucestershire, looks very Hogwarts'ish!
    But great enviroment, spoke for some time with a young lady who has just finished her final year doing the same BSc Hons course Beelzebub wants to do. Very honest and informative.

    A smaller college in Essex is next, but as he's not booked anything then maybe not!
    School of Hard Knocks alumni here - you want it, you do it!
