That was the shortest morning I've had at work ever. I arrived, explained that I had received a gas bill of £132 this morning and now I'm back home. Perhaps I should explain this tenuous link.

My first quarterly gas bill when I moved into my flat was for £3.50. I wrote this off as I didn't really care for a little over a pint in cash. That's not to say I wasn't a little curious as to why my flat was using gas when I use an electric cooker, an electric heater and an electric immersion heater for my water.

The bill I received this morning set alarm bells ringing though. I'm wondering why I've got a bill for £132 when I don't use gas. When I arrived into the office I was encouraged to check the symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning and sure enough:



So I've called up the Emergency gas leak people (0800 111 999 in case you ever need it. Oh, and they're good. They answered within 2 rings.) and they're coming out by 2pm. I really hope that this isn't a false alarm and it's some innocent billing error as I'd like to get to the bottom of my illness and be healthy again; I'm fed up.

Here's hoping.
