fantastic. Nothing beats owning your own home.

My wife and I have a 2 bedroom house for just the 2 of us.

The spare bedroom isn't a bedroom as such, although it can be for visiting guests.

I have my collection of model cars and my stingrays and my wife has her Star Wars collection displayed.

Just found that the gas company are going to move our meter outside for free since they are renewing the pipes (normally costs about £400). saves me getting up on my days off to let the guy in to read the meter.

Gas meter in the home? We ever do that here in the States?

Sounds quaint though and just like a house full of love. I could live there. :)

TK,

the house I just sold still had the gas meter inside the house. Pain in the butt because someone has to be home for them to read the darned meter.

If the pipeline ever failed, I would have had to move it outside at my expense. Therefore, I always bought that cheap insurance offered by the gas company to cover the gas lines, because it would also pay to move that meter outside if the need came about.

Thanks Steve.

I only know about the original colonies from school. Gas meters weren't discussed.

I learned something :)

Hahahahhaha! You're really on tonight, my friend! :D

In Pennsylvania, we're not a colony anymore, though. We're a "commonwealth", as are Mass, Virginia, and Kentucky. All the others are "states".

Hey man, this is a house of love.

No hippies though.

All new built houses for about the past 30 years have outside gas meters. My house is 50 years old so is kind of outside that whole thang.

Apparently the TV system is going to be in colour in the next few years. I think they are nuts. I have no problem watching the snooker when the guy is trying to pot the grey ball beside the darker grey ball.

I've heard all sorts of crazy talk as well about this "High Density" television that's all the go apparently.
