Light bulbs

[Easy 10]

I'm a fan of bayonet, but always hates having to push against the bulb that little bit to make it go in before you turn it. Always worry that one day it's going to shatter and cut me to RIBBONS.

I know EXACTLY what you mean. My heart is in my mouth as I push the new bulb in and twist it into position. You only need a slightly weak one and the glass could crack and LACERATE your fingers, leaving nasty little shards embedded in your flesh.
Its never happened in my 20-odd years of changing lightbulbs, but you never know do you.

As an interesting aside, the flourescent lightbulbs above my desk at work are made in Hungary.

Light bulb... Heavy bulb...





Ho well, I guess it was funnier when Tommy Cooper did it...

My Wife in 6 years of living together changed a bayonet light bulb last night without my assistance. I'm sure you all agree that is a feat worthy of praise.

I'm teaching Fuses as part of next weeks lessons of DIY for Doris's

For the hall you say?

Is that the banqueting hall? If so, I would suggest that 60 watts may not be adequate.
