Pretty rough looking trefoil installation, but as usual these days when covered up no one sees it….

It’s at least 900mm deep so should be ok for tent pegs!

Of course in the not to distant future we will need to apply to a governing body to scan the ground before hitting a tent peg
In the ground.

Metallic tracer warning tape still to be applied

Not paid much attention today, just looked a moment ago, 99.5% momentary CF. :praise:

I have a record of my 24hr CF PB being 19th Sept 23. 95.879%.
The prediction graph shows it dropping away this evening but its been a great couple of days.

I reckon my pb was Oct 17th, CF of 98.7%. I have "only" 95.9 for 19 Sept, but I might have missed the after-the-day adjustment.

I was in Turkey for that so unlikely to have been paying attention, thanks!

Just checked and going on the insight figures I have 17th Oct down as 92.5% CF. I shall not quibble. :D
