    Another nice(ish) day and 3.39 Os. Only need 10kWh per day more than average to hit August target. Sounds unlikely. Hang on ..... reach for calculator ....... days in August ........ divide by 3.1415 ...... add the first number I thought of ........ multiply by year of birth ........ carry the 2 ....... and I got 80085 ..... why does that always happen!

    Mart. Cardiff. 8.72 kWp PV systems (2.12 SSW 4.6 ESE & 2.0 WNW). 20kWh battery storage. Two A2A units for cleaner heating. Two BEV's for cleaner driving.

    4.13 Os so recovering some of the poor results this month.
    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".

    Just minutely short or 4 Os. I have made a little recovery on the month's total, but PVGIS feels too far away.
    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".
