  • The Price of Love

    reprise

    A romantic dinner for two.  They have reached the point in the meal when normally he would order a second bottle of champagne, but this evening he feels uneasy, upset.  To be honest, a little angry as well.

    She squeezes his hands across the table.  "Of course I love you darling," she says.  He can barely see her eyes through the flame of the candle.  "That's what you pay me for."

    This afternoon, I had a 77 minute phone call with British Gas on an 0845 number.  I stayed very calm - resistance is useless, I thought.   At the end of which I had been told:

    (a) the gas meter that my plumber had told me was mine belonged to another flat in the building (I don't believe it)

    (b) I do not infact live at the address I say I do

    (c) that my real gas meter has a serial number that I cannot find on any gas meter in the room all the flats' gas meters are stored in

    (d) that I am not actually a customer of British Gas at all.

    (e) there is no Regulator or consumer watchdog I can talk to about this (this is a lie, but I haven't found the strength to phone them)

    Only after I put the phone down did I discover that, outside, it has turned into a beautiful sunny day.

    How much an hour can I charge British Gas for my time?
