I just bonded both sides of both. :-)

Careful! - you're only supposed to bond the consumer's installation
pipework. On metal pipe gas supplies Transco often install an
insulating insert on their side of the meter, to prevent (or at least
reduce the risk of) current flowing in their pipes. It won't help if
this is shorted out :-(

Right.:-)

My incoming gas main is iron barrel which is imbedded directly in the
earth. A few years ago, they inserted a plastic pipe in it - very clever -
no disruption to the garden path.

I'm totally confused about all the various options, so simply bonded
absolutely everything together - including a vast earth rod. But not the
incoming leccy SWA main sheath as it looked not that sanitary.

It measures ok. :-)
