You have to remember we were a big family and my mother used the slaxone boiler regularly to boil the bed linen - we had a bed wetter in the family(it wasn't me)......and the slaxone boiler was something gifted to Ma from the inlaws...they were posh...they had a washing machine with a mangle built in...electric too...no hard work for them.
The slaxone boiler was delivered by the coalman and his horse buttercup.
Happy days eh?
