I have found that I have a water leak after the water meter and before
the main shut off tap (meter still goes round when turned of at mains).
As the meter hole has water in it does it mean the leak is at the joint
between meter and the pipe to my house?

According to a reading i took it is losing .025 m3 / hour.

25l (5gal) / hr . . . oops

Now, remind me again why I don't want a water meter...

That leak would be around £350 /year . About the same as what many
people pay on the flat rate schemes. As I have said before unless you have
a largish number of people in your home, or are very keen on
hoses/sprinklers/swimming pools you will almost certainly save a
substantially by going to a meter.
