A wrapped counter appears to be affecting our electricity metering and billing. While the measurement of kWh is probably in the right ballpark for somebody our size, they also reckon our peak consumption is about 1kW. Since the bill usually has a pound sign followed by a telephone number, I've toyed with the idea of disputing the bill on the basis we couldn't possibly use that much power with just a 1kW load, but we'll pay the 40 quid for one month of 1kW :) -- I wrote this story myself, It's all about a girl who lost her reputation, but never missed it. - Mae West
