However, just to get serious for once (I know, it;s not like me at all...), I have a sprog who has a dimmer switch in her room and it was costing me a fortune in these new-fangled bulbs until someone enlightened me (like the pun here?!) and told me it's cos these new bulbs don't like dimmer switches. Hence the purchase of lots of 60watt regular bayonet bulbs to at least prevent the hysterics when switching the lights of results in the whole house being plunged into darkeness and a mad scramble for the trip switches to restore order until the next ime a bulb is changed!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1134836868274933855.post-72447163170683428312009-09-03T19:46:32.945+01:002009-09-03T19:46:32.945+01:00I was beginning to wonder why I was looking tired ...I was beginning to wonder why I was looking tired and green.

What's better than gazing at your beloved in candle light?<br /><br />"Soft White" bulbs were not flattering, but they didn't do any damage either.<br /><br />These damn fluorescent bulbs are hideous! They make everyone look tired and green. <br /><br />Couldn't we just go back to candles?wineandroastshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10706227811429388824noreply@blogger.com
