Our friends south of the border have been eligible for a 'boiler scrappage' scheme where they can £400 towards the cost of a new one.

Well, It looks like its being considered for Scotland as well - about time, going by the state of some of the boilers ive seen. Around 12,000 homes could benefit, as could our plumbing industry.

The Scotsman has the story with a quote from Sarah Boyak (ex-environment minister, see video below) and the housing and communities officer Alex Neil has told Radio 4 that the scheme 'has not been ruled out'.

We await news with interest.

In the meantime, could you do with a new boiler?
