rothschild   10 #6 Posted October 28, 2010 We're with British gas for both gas and electricity and we haven't had a text like this. Mind you, I don't think they know our mobile phone numbers anyhow. I wonder what they mean by "illegal" electricity? Intriguing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Don't drive around with that lot in the back of the van and exceed 88mph or you will end up in 1985!!!  Don't worry about it mate, it's all stored in rubber buckets. No risk from the old electric when it's stored in rubber, simple fact, like with lightning.  On an unrelated note, i've got a few cubic foot of the old natural gas going cheap which my mates currently got stuffed in a stairwell of a towerblock. In your game i bet you could shift it, if the price is right eh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Treatment   10 #11 Posted October 29, 2010 This is to do with the recent discovery of North Sea electricity I believe, as reported in the Daily Mail. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Number Six   10 #12 Posted October 29, 2010 It's easy to spot the illegal electric as it is red. You're only supposed to use it to run street lights, but I was stopped by a bloke the other day who'd been sent to deliver some and they'd loaded his van up with an extra cauldron of it by mistake - there is two pylon's worth of leccy in one of those! He offered it to me cheap, but I was wearing my steel toe-caps so I couldn't carry it home. Shame, it was a shockingly good deal.
