I'm still waiting (with horror) the free market in water supply. "Severn Trent Water is now part of the MuskServ Group. This means your water meter will no longer accurately measure the amount of water you use. This is due to the enhanced density and purity of water supplied by MuskServ. Unfortunately you were out last Saturday when we came to change your meter, so we've given you an estimated bill."

Hard work sometimes pays off in the end, but laziness ALWAYS pays off NOW.
