    Hello Campers!
    I accidentally opened this thread at p.1 instead of p.702, which reminds me of two things:
    - this thread is all my fault!
    - and I don't come here very often!
    I ought to apologise to all those messages I haven't read and thanked. (sorry!)
    However, I have to report, at 3.30ish pm, that Rufus (my lovely set of roof panels) has just done his first Hawaii of the season (16.45kW/h), and given me a silver spoon. Isn't that nice!
    Wishing you all much silver in the coming generation season,

    OG

    ps yesterday was mixed, with sleet and sun in equal parts. The day before was dire!
