The boring thread.....

[Mups]

I have no intention of ever moving. Too many skips needed.

Colour temperature and brightness aren't the same thing.

If you don't want an electrician bill why not order the tube off amazon? As you got the old one out you know how they go back in. Line up the slots push tube up and in then twist through 90 degrees.

I would if I knew what to order,  but as I said earlier,  I don't know anything about Volts/Watts/Lumens etc.  so what if I ordered the wrong thing?

The way some of the delivery firms chuck things about,  it might even arrive broken too..  Then what.

Anyway,  I am going to let the dogs out for their bedtime wee,  then get off to bed else I shall oversleep in the morning.

It's a mystery to me why lightbulbs don't have their precise details printed or embossed clearly.  It's so blooming irritating to find a partially legible hint of a specification which, unless by pure fluke you hold it up to the sun on the second Sunday after the mid lunar cycle prior to the second solstice whilst holding a UV light with your finger up your nose and squinting in an undefined manner,  you'll never be able to make out.

Mind you, it's also a complete mystery why they use stickers on items, which are a bugger to get off with or without soaking in white sprit and stinking your fingers when subsequently scratching with your nails, and then require several doses of neat fairy liquid.

I want to find the inventors of these unnecessary annoyances and give them a jolly stern talking to.

Amazon do free returns. They also give sizes of stuff they sell. Their search is dodgy but recognising something that looks like a flourscwnt tube is easy enough

I see there are even some there yhat say they are fluorescent i though they were banned

I'd still go with led myself if I was buying. Lots on there

Morning, 3rd day it's hardly got light, this is really getting to me now. Lights are on from dawn to dusk. Very quiet Christmas only out for a couple of hours Christmas Morning. I will be so glad when it's past New Year and it all returns to normal.
Enjoy your day folks whatever you do.

Morning all.   It's a lovely cloudless blue sky and sunshine today,  but ruddy freezing.  
Outside thermometer was on zero when I looked at it about 9 o/clock this morning.
I even woke up during the night because my feet were really cold,  so I had to rake out some bed socks.  Slept snug as a bug in a rug after that.

Don't know what to do today,  its too cold for me to work outside,  there's only boring stuff on telly,  so I might just have to do a bit of ironing to keep myself occupied - beat that for excitement!

Lovely sunny day here too, but freezing cold.  I've just had my lunch, I'm having a mooch on t'internet then settling down to a good film.

I've heard of sunny, but don't really believe it

[klondike]

It's always sunny in the daytime. The problem is all the clouds that get in the way.

We had a run round the garden with the dogs, lovely sun, but really cold. Log burner is lovely and warm. OH is dozing, grandkids are invisible, but will appear for food later. We had a lovely day yesterday, son cooked a really nice meal.  Picky bit buffet tonight, home tomorrow.

We've not seen the sun for days just dark and miserable.

[GrannyMac]

We've been really lucky with the weather.  Looking ok tomorrow too 🤞🏼 

[Michael Rolls]

Sun? Vis is der sun?

Aint it sad now the pretty Christmas twinkly lights and decs are all gone from the top of this page.   

Might you be able to find something nice for New Years Eve,  Klondie?   
I hear there is going to be a big party down the Jockeys for us all.
