I can't get a new kitchen this year 'cus I need a new boiler, so my budget has been diverted to that.
My bills should come down to about half though, something to do with pilot lights not being the done thing anymore, and it'll go on my wall where all my pots'n'pans are (they need to be high up or something, and connected to the outside wall), so my pots'n'pans now have to go on another wall, which needs to be re-inforced to be able to hold all my pots'n'pans.

I'll get a new oven now though, 'cus my one is shit, and a little bit dangerous as it turns itself on randomly in the middle of the night like out of that film Paranoid Activity 2. But I only have 55" so I can't get a super awesome oven, just a normal awesome one.

FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS.

The 60 inchers are so much prettier, but I've got like 59.999999 inches space =((((((
The advantage though is that now the boiler is on the wall, there is room for a dishwasher, and my hallway cupboard is going to be HUGE, I could turn it into a shower-room, it's more than big enough. I'm gonna turn it into a laundry room though, as I'm currently using my office for that.

Get a little radiator installed in it and you've got an excellent airing cupboard right there.
I wish we had room for a specific airing cupboard, but we don't, so the airer lives on the landing.

I'm not 100% sure, it's a good idea, but I'm also going to double it up as storidge for food items, such as cans and stuff.
I bought about 40 cans of fizzy pop for £7 on sunday, used my granny bag to carry it, god damn I live Enfield Town.

whoa.
What the fuck pans do you have if you need to reinforce a wall, Gonz?

It's one of those thin plaster board wall things, and I've got hanging on it*
about 5 frying pans, 4 saucepans, another shelf that has a few lightweight items (chopping boards, colindar, scales) and 2 thin shelves of herbs'n'stuff.

* as in, what would be transfered to be hanging on it, it's currently on a proper wall.

as long as you mount the hanging racks properly
there's no need to re-inforce for that. I've hung several whole cupboards on less*

*disclaimer - I've not seen this wall so taking my advice may end badly.

I'm imagining that it's actually just a piece of plasterboard leant against a wall.

the internal walls in my last house were basically cardboard
They still held cupboards full of stuff just fine.
