02250

An interesting number. It is the number of cubic metres of water we have used since this meter was installed in May 1994. I check it about this time every year.

 

We are not on a metered tariff, but we agreed to let the water company put a meter in because they wanted to survey water usage prior to introducing compulsory metering. This means we have been able to keep track of our own water consumption, and establish that so far we are better off paying according to our rateable value - an ancient concept pre-dating Margaret Thatcher's Poll Tax.
