Well, it's different. Helps you to see where you're going I suppose.

I discovered a cheaper option by accident. I have a light fitting in the bathroom that takes 3 small G9 bulbs. I replaced the ones in it with LED bulbs that came from China off eBay. They glow very faintly even when off. You can't see that in the daytime but with the door left open it is enough to light the way at night.

Doesn't sound as much fun as a light up loo though :grin:
I've got a battery operated lamp on the windowsill at the top of the stairs, the batteries last ages and it glows enough for when I get up in the night.  They've sold out at JSYK these are the same but mine are a peach colour

You can get ones that plug into the main sockets cheap. We had some for when young grandchildren stayed.

The loo light is so funny.. Mainly for men though.. who seem to miss their target.!  :nooo:

I love the light bulbs Alex.. I have just ordered them on Amazon..
I have a night light bulb that plugs in on my landing.. It is brilliant .. but little use in a power cut.

Perhaps we need a glide slope system like they have at airports.

 I remember a practice set. Some little boats and a clip on sight...

Can you get little boats for the toilet? What fun.
