    0.52 Os today which gives an average of 0.7 Os for the month, bang on PVGIS estimate which is a bit worrying as the amount of sunshine my east and west facing panels will see will fall off rapidly as the month progresses.

    Thought we were on to a winner this morning around 10:00 but it turned into a damp squid by 11:00. The drizzle has continued most of the day.

    Quite topical what with it being Bonfire Night yesterday. I wonder how many people had trouble lighting their squids due to damp. ;)
