I am concerned about having a meter in my bedroom as my
existing cupboard/meter combo always smells strongly of gas.
Then you have a leak. Make sure they replace the meter with a new one
which does not leak!

Hmmm! I wonder why he's not sitting on the roof if its that strong a smell?
a couple of hours and he should of been a shade of blue.
The old manufactured gas was highly toxic and a concentration much less
that lower explosive limit was fatal in minutes.
Natural gas is much less toxic. However gas leaks need to be fixed -
because some of them are serious and any leak might be just such.
