Kim (my wife) and I used to live in a bedsit many, many, many years
ago.  We couldn't afford the extortionate prices the landlord charged
for electricity - they can set the meter to what they want you know
quite legally.  So I bypassed the supply and we got free power for
months.  I put 50p in the meter about once or twice a week and told
the landlord we didn't spend much time at home.  It was a complex of
bedsits and all the electic was aon a single main meter with each
besdsit having it's own spur supply.  All very dangerous but the guy
was a prat.  I want to use stronger language even now but am
restraining myself.
