If they ban gas boilers what will all those now unused flames do?

When I was a kid we had a gas fridge, it provided hours of fun as it was always lit and never extinguished.

I know it will wind @WillyWombat up there was a set of divining rods in a kitchen cupboard and they used to come out for people to try divining the location of the steel gas pipe that ran through the concrete floor screed to the fridge.  You would be surprised how many people could do it if they just relaxed and tried.

The best bit was launching paper bags as hot air balloons using the fumes from its little chimney.

When we moved the new house did not have a gas supply, but my brother and his wife did buy a gas fridge for their first house.

So when I was a kid we had a flame burning in an unvented gas appliance in our kitchen for over ten years that did throw a gentle pool of light onto the wall behind it that could be seen quite clearly at night.

I cannot imagine any of the kids of today reminiscing about a fridge after fifty years, but as daft as it sounds that flame that was never extinguished gave it a life and personality.
