    The sun wasn't forecast to come out until after lunch today so what a pleasant surprise when it was with us for breakfast. It stayed until mid afternoon when the mist and cloud rolled in but too late to stop the panels generating 3.05 O's taking us nicely beyond pvgis for the entire month! :)

    2.17 Os yesterday here and currently at 108% PVGIS for the month.

    If only I'd owned long enough ago to get FIT payments like that!
