    Yesterday was a goodish 3.7 Os, but today was a cracking day, Gromit, and my third Hawaii of the season - 5.4 Os.
    Also, today the system passed 20mW/hours in its five and a half years. That gives me the satisfaction of knowing that I've generated enough to power the whole UK for the equivalent of about 22 minutes. I now have to decide which 22 minutes I'd like it to be....

    5 Os today, another good day
    Remember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.

    At 4.30pm the mist rolled in from the sea and up the mountain, but too late to stop Rufus the roof from banging in a 16.88kw/h - which equates to 5.1 Os in new money. A Hawaii two days running! Good-oh!
