For a time, around 45 years ago, we lived in a Flat where the previous Tenant had got into arrears and the Electricity Meter had been set to clear it. That meant you got about five pennorth for you two Bob. Every now and again I used to call in the Bank, get a couple of Quids worth and bang them in. The problems arose when it was full because we were both at work so we were never there for it to be emptied. We had to ask them to come and one of us stayed in. We were then left with a huge pile of two Bobs. You got some very suspicious looks when you went to spend them. I expect they thought we'd broken in to it. We never did persuade them to change the Setting.
