There's some tremendous offers on the energy efficiency ones at the mo, 99p each or 4 for £1.  The savings are brilliant as due to the lesser light they give out I now have the ceiling fitting and two lamps in the front room alone.

T'least I'm saving the planet...

Of course...  whistle:

As Growler has reported we have a coup-le of chandelier type light fittings here which take candle bulbs. Wehn these go pop we shall, I assume, have to replace them with those stupid things that look like this


No I haven't.
When have I alledgedly reported on this, and to whom...and where, please, exactly. ::)
Why would I 'report' such triviality ey, why, exactly...like? Please.

Poundland were doing  boxes of candle bulbs. Mrs Tel buys them as we have 2 light fittings that take them.
