I doubt I can scrap my boiler as she is a bit too old, could do with a new model though

My old boiler does the washing, ironing and cooks/burns my dinner .... but I could do with a new, fancy, efficient model - sadly, I suspect the cost-to-change will be far too high!

I'll just have to wait until it breaks down ......

Well, you have to buy one of those new efficient ones which cost about £3K, so £250 aint going be too much incentive to change, is it?
