How many tonnes of bombs did the Luftwaffe drop during the Blitz?

To follow up the D-Day discussion for purposes of comparison, I would like to ask whether anyone has figures of the tonnage of bombs dropped by the Luftwaffe during the Blitz in 1940 and 1941. I have found a figure of 31,822 tonnes in Richard Overy's Bombing War, but it isn't clear whether this refers to all operations, or just the major bombing raids.

Kind regards,

Dan
