Our gas boiler was installed in 2021 so we are locked into that for its lifetime. So there are things we can't change.

We are building an extension which will sort out some of the current access and energy efficiency issues, and give us a downstairs bathroom and a properly ventilated space for air drying clothes. We are also getting the kitchen refitted with new appliances and considering energy efficiency all round. Looking at new fridge, air pump tumble drier, electric hob and do we really need an oven? All being well after that we will probably put in solar panels as our next big house project. Heat pumps will have to wait until the boiler reaches end of life.

Our current second-hand hybrid car does about 4,000 miles a year. When it reaches end of life we may replace it with an electric vehicle or do without altogether, too early to say.

Agree with you about flying.
