    Think we may have had some sun at various times. Graph indicates that it was not around for long then into hiding and back out again.

    2.07 O's 

    Reached the dizzy heights of 10.3% of estimate! :D

    What's these O's?
    Definition of 'O's = kWh/kWp (kWh = your daily & accurate Generation figure) (kWp = the rated output of your PV Panels).

    Taken from Oscargrough's Signature.

    Below is words that we have used to describe the number of O's 

    2 O's = Bond, As in 007
    3 O's = TyphOOO
    4 O's = Winks, 40 winks
    5 O's = Hawaii, Hawaii 5 O
    6 O's = Maiden, 6 balls in an over
    7 O's = Heaven, in 7th Heaven
    8 O's = Potato's 8 O's sounds like Potatoes!

    O's are a good way of levelling us all, so the ones with big arrays don't always "win"  ;)
