    Breached 500kWh for the month of May yesterday, with 2 days still to play with; come on baby!
    Currently at 113% of PVGIS target (432kWh)

    Next targets:
    3 ho's needed to beat best (old string inverter) month of July 2014
    9 ho's needed to beat best month eva!! June 2015

    This point in 2014, we'd got 25.93% of our total annual target.
    In 2015, we had 31.66%

    As of typing this, we're at 31.5%, so the rest of today and tomorrow to still add.

    So far today, we've done a mahoosive 1.278kWh, not even a ho!
    Friday last we had done 11.6kWh by 11.15, Tuesday last we had over 14kWh in the bag by now!!!

    Two more fifth month totals passed today ('15 & '13) - slowly clawing back the poor performance over last winter and it's still possible to end up with this month's total sitting at the top of the May list ...
