As the golden hour slowly drew to a close, vapour trails full of warmth from planes that flew across the atmosphere made the sunset blissful!

"new chemical plants using fossil fuel feedstocks springing up all around the world to satisfy demand for that final sparkle✨ on your #pv panels offset [wrong direction] extra 1% electrical output." ?
Robin* poop is the biggest enemy of my panel output. Any cleaning agent has the same effect as well as water - spreading it around as a uniform layer. But hold on, smoothed robin-poop is almost like chalk-based household cleaner - helps removes the other more botanical film. Buffing soon with a damp cloth [rainwater] is the key.
*Every post this morning will mention a robin.
Apart from robins, the biggest hit on my panel output the last few clear days has been jet #vapourTrails. Any advice on how to clean them up very welcome. |;-/

@EllieK So Zaz's mother was not a Cornish Rex then? Or was she? I know so little about the breed, but I'd like to know more.
It must have been so hard to give away your last first edition of Vapour Trails. I'm sure the recipient will absolutely love and appreciate it!
I've been meaning to ask you, when you met Louise Penny, did she happen to mention how she came to know about your mother's poetry? She obviously deeply admired your mother's work.
