Frustrated

Why is life so cruel? :confused: After several years of financially being on my ar@@ and being in debt. I am actually £440 in debt now ( yippee) and I have been counting down the days to posting that I have cleared the lot.
As I only work part time I needed two more pays days and it was allllll gone.

BUT NOW i need a boiler.:mad: :mad: :mad:
it has been on it's last legs for several years and I know that it is uneconomical but I rather have an uneconomical boiler than one with a fab energy rating and a new CC bill.

Sorry about that but I had to vent at the injustice.

    We are in the same boat - desperately need new boiler which will lower bills but its £2k outlay! Argh

    not so long ago central heating was for the rich only and most people had no sort of boiler at all...doesnot seem such an injustice really....as the man said theres no such thing as too many pullovers.

    Here here to pullovers!

    Try Freecycle for a new boiler, put a WANTED on!
