Default Gas Meter Safety Check

Ah in the old days the engineers used to strike a match and look for leaks
by the change in colour of the flame.
I never trusted them, but I don't think anyone got blown up. I no longer
have gas.

The energy company want to undertake a safety check of my gas meter.


IME that's code for "too many estimated or customer readings", they'll
send a normal meter reader bloke.

Not for us, we get regular meter readers, but still had someone
come to check the meter a couple of years ago.

The safety check seemed to involve looking at the meter and going
OK :-)
