No, timing's no issue.

I'm getting a lift that day, off some old guy with a magic sleigh, who does a bit of moonlighting for Max Cabs.

See you quarter to twelve-ish.

I got one too, Mick. Was surprised, as being on Direct Debit expected it to be credited through that.

Expect was the easiest and most cost effective way of UU doing this.

yes I am on a meter.

The problem started in May when I found the toilet cistern was over flowing.It over flows directly into the drainage system so went undetected for quite some time.

yes I know this practice is not allowed but since when did building control bother about rules when they can turn a blind eye to suit the situation at the time?
