    Thank goodness the "differing weather" makes no odds to the kWh readings......:T:T smiley-think005.gif :rotfl:

    Comparing 'O's is pointless

    All that matters to me is £ :T:T smiley-think005.gif :rotfl:

    And the more you try make your stupid point, the more I just count my £ higher than yours :T:T smiley-think005.gif :rotfl:

    got in at 12:30 am this morning after a particularity bad train journey home to find my recycling bins "gone with the wind" but thankfully the panels look OK.... now not tempting fate (I hope) but if they can withstand last nights gales they should be stuck up there forever....... Cannot tell if they are working though as no sun for the last two days :D

    A nice steady 0.9 O's, yet again my newly retrofied SSW system throwing a steady 3.3kWh(£1.58) in all by its lonesome. Have to say that makes me happy as i've "earnt" more than i've purchased and with the wife trying her best to use every last watt today i'd like to believe that none escaped her clutches:D

    Ho Ho Ho...merry christmas everyone:xmastree::xmassmile:xmassign:
