    Not reported for a few days....

    Thu 3.54
    Fri 2.96
    Sat 1.68
    Sun 2.21

    Has been glorious here really, matching October PVGIS on Saturday and far exceeding on the other days...... weather forecast suggests similar sunshine for the rest of the week until the icy blast joins us Friday onwards! :eek:

    Just lowered the Flag!

    Better afternoon than morning and after seeing the forecast last night and this morning did fairly well.

    3.74 O's

    Passed my worst Oct total around midday. Not sure I should say this but only need 1.3 O's per day for the month to make best Oct total.;)
