    3 Os yesterday, when rain was forecast (but, as usual, didn't arrive) and 5.1 Os today (when rain was forecast for the afternoon, but etc).

    "6.2os today becoming a habit this.......3 days of whatever a 6 is on the bounce! 637 kw hrs for the month so far..........."
    It's called a maiden, based on an idea from cricket scoring (or not scoring). Rugby League is different, I think.

    16.65 today, that's 5.55 Os. Mix of cloud and sun but the cold really helped
    Remember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.
