What a gas!!!

I've had real fun today;

- I was putting up some fence posts using some of those metpost thingies and whilst hammering the last one into place with a well-placed clout, thought I could smell gas!!!

Yep - you've guessed it - I'd managed to spear a gas supply some 3 feet under ground!!!

So after a few frantic phone calls and turning off anything electrical, I'd managed to get Transco round who managed to fix the bugger this evening!!!

They had to dig a bluddy great hole to get to the bugga, so I'll not be able to get a fence post anywhere near it now, but will need tons of concrete

This pipe was only a couple of inches across, so I had to be pretty unlucky to harpoon the blighter.

Thank god for Sky+ as I could record the BSB action and have just finished watching it. Oh and to those nice fellas at Transco - here's hoping they don't send me a big bill!!!!
