Nice one Mod6.
I can just hear the whole place go BOOM. No, I'll pass on that one.

How much do you want to spend? My Anton would be around £700 to buy!
What's it for? If you're worried about a leak in your own place just ring National Grid on 0800 111999 and they will check it out for free

No big-all, the info you have provided says the happy Mondays are a band of some sort.
I don't want to play some music, so don't try and confuse me?
I just want to spend around £150 for a gas leak detector (electronic or battery operated one, that is)! That's all.

Sorry seeing the swan matches
reminded me
Ah yes my dad now in Rogues heaven,
Used a match -no it’s true, his mate told me years later after they returned from a liquid lunch
to finish off the kitchen supply, but forgot to turn the gas off -
lit the torch up- applied to solder joint - boom -huge flame,
my dad’s mate ran but the o'l man being a pro
manage to turn gas off ,phew
Sorry again as it doesn’t help with detector

It's probably worth me pointing out that KTM is indeed a fully registered gas guy

The box of matches made I laugh.
When I were a nipper and in the Brussel Sprouts, we had a gas fire at our HQ which leaked a bit from the supply pipe when the fire was turned on, the simple solution (to us) was to ignite the leak.
The leak used to burn with a small flame about the size of a pilot light but because it was burning it didn't smell as it did when unlit, it's terrifying now to think about it but it worked just fine for us.

I do admit the matches idea was a good joke. It did make me laugh, loads.
