No more filament bulbs

It said in the paper tonight that they are starting to wind downproduction of filament bulbs this year.What are we meant to do with all the security lights where CFLs won'twork?What about my sitting room lights on a dimmer?What about my "candle" bulb fittings where a CFL won't fit?How am I meant to recycle those pesky CFLs when I can't dispose of themin the rubbish (landfill prohibition)?Grrrr!

Fabulous. When my existing stock of bulbs runs out, those go in the non dimmable holders..

I encountered -20c for several nights on the run once.

My car had been in for a repair and had been refilled without enough antifreeze in the coolant and would freeze up and overheat if driven over about 35 mph, I had to blank off the radiator grille and bonnet top with a piece of carpet.
