    Looking at my generatio in terms of Hawaiis... I had 6 in whole of April, 10 in May, 15 in June, and 9 in July (including today) so far.

    Lots of good good days! Though this weekend doesn't look like it will be much good!

    I am just a few miles from you Legoman but have quite different results most days. This morning the geo monitor has not even switched itself on, there is so little light around. I can just about see some streaks of blue stuff amongst the high cloud. Thank heavens I used the dishwasher and washing machine yesterday. As they say, make hay ......
