    And I dislike the dark mornings that would be caused by moving the clocks forward one hour even more! I hated the 1968-1970 winters that resulted from the BST experiment. But we could argue forever about that :)

    Unforgettable Xmas lunch the year of the miners' strike.
    A sunset engraved in the memory, caused by the Estuary power stations burning something akin to car tyres, to keep the lights on.

    Anyway here on the Essex Riviera it was 7.8 kWh including a drop out, possibly caused by the mains voltage exceeding 254 volts.

    Hiya Jed. Am I getting predictable? Well today was 2.8, so a little below 1/30th of November's anticipated generation. :p
