[QUOTE="BGonaSTICK, post: 56318, member: 176912"] Well I have to tell you that it is possible for a utility company to own a hole. I worked for British Gas many moons ago, and as part of my apprenticeship I spent some time investigating and fixing leaks etc. We were called out to a leak one day on a service pipe into an old house, but when we dug up the pavement to locate the steel pipe, it had completely corroded away, and the gas was literally flowing through a hole in the heavy clay soil. OK it was leaking a bit after several decades, but hey. You might consider jamming some cat5 down your cooker burner. It might well come out of your m8s central heating boiler. Stranger things have happened. Maybe not. [/QUOTE]
