    If my boiler ran flat out 24 hours a day it could not use that much, check that the readings are what you have been charged for.

    A quick update on this. 

    Our meter was swapped on 28th March. The engineer pointed out that the old meter was still incrementing even though it was disconnected. I am now averaging 3.2 cubic meters daily. For the first quarter of the year that was 43.5 cubic meters per day. So the meter is now correct but having a devil of a job to get BG to fix the bills.

    Has the meter been sent away for testing ?

    Any language construct that forces such insanity in this case should be abandoned without regrets. –

    Treasure the moments that you have. Savour them for as long as you can for they will never come back again.
