Winter One Day, Perfect The Next

We had a top temperature of a mere 18 degrees on Thursday and a day full of Melbourne like rain.  It rained all day and we had a total of 5mls.

Then came the perfect Friday.  23 degrees, not a cloud in the sky and just delightful.  We had Friday Drinks at our place and we were still sitting outside at 5pm in our shorts and shirt sleeves.  It sure cooled down quickly when the sun went down though!

I have been riding most days and just pottering around the PC!  I have been updating my movies and TV Shows, adding something to the Community Association website and packing away the last of the outdoor summer stuff.  The beach umbrella was stored away the other day.

The solar hardly even registered on the wet Thursday but it worked flat out on Friday.  It is another sensational day today and even at 8 am it was producing enough electricity to run the house this morning.  However the big usage comes when the pool filter starts up.  It doesn't make enough electricity to cover the pool filter.  But then we put it on to cut costs on top of a reasonable investment and it should do that OK.

We had footy on TV last night and it is just about to get underway again this afternoon.

Computer Club was a s busy this morning but I did enjoy it.

Time to charge a glass and turn the TV on!
