BBQ tomoz, Joe. Kids coming back for DS’s birthday (where’d 37 years go :o )

Anyway, few nice dry aged (local butcher) ribeyes ready for the charcoal bbq.

Sunshine/Good weather makes such a difference.

I don't think they will be noctilucent clouds as it is still daylight up here.

Rain has moved in with a certainty. Grey skies abound yet the array is valiantly pulling in that 1kW ClockmanFRA spoke of. The chicken balti is slow cooking at induction hob setting 1. My wee folding solar panel is genuinely harvesting photons even in the grey and I'm putting off lighting the WBS for a while yet! :D

I must like my hairshirts. Happy days! :lol: :twisted:
