I reckon he's got the drive dug up trying to bypass the water meter!!!!!

Following on from that macmac.....
Where do they site these water meters ?
How often are they read?
ours is out the front by the stoptap
they read them very seldom, as in once or twice a year here ::)supposed to be quarterly
i take my own readings because they will just give you an estimated bill otherwise
severn trent is our supplier
