    Give you 3 guesses why!!!

    Edwink ;)

    Applying the laws of 'what goes up must come down', then generation is up, so 'something' must have come down!

    I'm sure Oscar will work it out. He's probably got a glass sided trash can for situations just like this, where he can draw and write on the walls, calculating all the variables. If it gets too hard, we'll see a little column of smoke rising up. :think:

    Generation here is going well for July, nothing too special to report (apart from near record on the 1st 6.1 Os), but ticking along a few points above average.

    Mart.
    Mart. Cardiff. 8.72 kWp PV systems (2.12 SSW 4.6 ESE & 2.0 WNW). 20kWh battery storage. Two A2A units for cleaner heating. Two BEV's for cleaner driving.

    For general PV advice please see the PV FAQ thread on the Green & Ethical Board.

    That's the first guess.. You are Porky Pieing :rotfl: that's a very doubtful second.. and the third...F knows...:D

    Bet you thought the F stood for something forbidden on the site; wrong, F is for 'Forest'. bath-ducky-hello-smiley-emoticon.gif

    Today A/An Hawaii + 0.72 that will do nicely, thank you very much. smiley-laughing021.gif July '14 has beaten Dec '13 in 6 days by 0.68 O's already.....:beer: coffee.gif

    Been away for a couple of days to wet but warm Wells-next-the-sea. Lovely place, when the rain cleared it was great!

    No ho's for me over the weekend but I did get 5.35 and 5.33 on Tues/Weds. :)

    Wish it would only rain in the afternoons, I'd be very happy then!
