    I didn't think anyone would take it seriously :sweat_smile:
  • To be fair, someone did just seriously suggest to someone on another thread that they should install their own gas meter, after buying one on ebay.
    There doesn't seem to be a lower limit to how bad the advice given can be!
    I realised someone may take my comment literally and try to do the same so I edited it appropriately. 

    Advice to self install a gas meter is just plain stupid.
