    Really annoyed with myself today. Trip to Manchester Trafford Centre with the OH and teenagers. Forgot to put on dishwasher before we went. 5.44 "wasted" O's up here today.
    I suppose I should be thankful that they didn't buy anything either.:mad:

    Just about 3 Os here. Just need to average 17.5kWh per day, or to put it another way, 5kWh above the March daily expectation, to cross the expected generation line for March in 10 days time. Not looking that likely given the outlook :(
