    Hawaii plus here - 20.74kw and probably the cooling breeze had a lot to do with it as it was overcast for a fair bit of the morning. Three loads of washing (almost blown over the Humber), usual cooking for a Sunday and a free shower or two. Let's hope we get a good few days like this in August and September and I won't worry about the expense of new pegs!

    my second best day so far 6.15 O's, if it wasn't for a bit of early cloud then it would have beaten my best day which was in may. Funnily enough I got nowhere near my peak power.

    That's odd. You might want to check that.

    Today wasn't particularly hot.
