Consumption had risen from 38 to 42 over the latest 6-month period with no change of habit and I asked the water company to check on the spot. Their operative first checked that the line a far as the stopcock was sound. With the cock open, he then checked that there were no dribbles from any of the taps and the two toilets in the house. (I had checked that there were no leaks from the radiators.) Since the meter was still registering a flow he assumed there was a leak in the pipeline.
I am trying to get the operative's estimate of how bad the leak is.
