I found an extension lead running from my neighbor’s garage into the socket on the back of my house. I confronted him: “That’s my power you’re using. It’s on MY meter!” He laughed: “C’mon, it’s only pennies!” So I installed a lockable cover. This morning, I froze when I found a note through my letterbox saying: “You’re colder than your electricity, mate.”
