So City Power's two technicians - Lindi 'Rocket Scientist' and Bongane 'The Prof' delivered our smart power meter yesterday by dropping it through the gate and into our heavily sloping driveway.
Of course, when my wife came home, she retreived it from under the car.
When these clever people arrived at our house to install, only my two daughters and the domestic were home as my wife was out. The kids called my wife and said there's four people at the gate. My wife figured there was no way that 4 people are needed to install a smart meter and told them not to open the gate. Not that she would have let them open the gate for one guy without her home anyway.
I do find it strange that they would litterally drop a device like this off without anyone receiving it. Odd. We'll have to see who CP thinks is responsible for the cost of the replacement meter...
