January 19 2006:
The Lighter Side

I’ve had a number of bulbs go lately, including one in the bathroom which was there when I first moved here nine and a half years ago. And that wasn’t a long-life one either.

Isn’t life fascinating…

Converted to Grayscale

Just heard they are going to tax these old types in favour of the new er 'long life' variety.

hahaha. I've just had a bulb go in the spare bedroom and I keep forgetting to replace it and keep falling over as I stumble to the lamp in the dark.

Where can I get a bulb that lasts 9.5 years. Does your switch work, lol?
Well done-esp in b/w.

Robin Reid 20-Jan-2006 03:38
