Times have moved on since the OP. So the question now is How many forum members have a 17th edition ticket.
ā¦but itās 6 months later and a lurker from another team started it up again:catfight:
at least these energy saving bulbs last a year and not the normal 6 months now it should be bright enough to be able to see again by about june
Of course if the light bulb in question is a Maplin solar powered flood light (part number N01HT) you wouldnt bother changing it and just get used to blundering about in the dark
On a cloudy day such as today and most other days at this time of year, 7.2v at 20ma doesnāt even start to charge the battery
:tiphat: I Haveā¦ not that Iāll ever use it!!!
I wish you buggers wouldnāt keep changing the damn bulbs, youāre playing havoc with my mushroom farm down here
pokes new bulb with pointy stick, lights candle and wanders off
<smug eco warrior mode on>
All my bulbs are now low wattage :sarcwave:. Ner ner ner-ner ner
<smug eco warrior mode off>

but mine actually work
Low wattage bulb? Is that what people are calling candles these days?
:lol:
Once a year, we call candles a āfire hazard on a cakeā and that day is Wolrams birthday
Fire extinguishers at the ready lads, it will soon be here
As weāre now over the 6 month time period for this to be highlighted again, I just thought Iād bring it to everyones attention.
OK OK lightbulb changed. Back to sleep everyone ;p
how can we go back to sleep when you just turned the lights on :sigh:
I heard that the light at the end of the tunnel has been turned off due to financial issues :sigh:
No it was due to be turned off, but a recent EU directive states that any lights at the end of tunnels must be turned off in a safe and controlled manner by a person or persons fully conversant with the procedure.
As there never has been a procedure for the turning off of lights at the end of tunnels, a committee has been formed to reach an agreement on staffing levels required.
so . . how many forum members would it take to turn off the light at the end of the tunnel ?
or does this require a new thread :shrug:
:haha: love it, made me smile with my morning coffee
Surely we have to petition the members to see whether there is enough interest to participate in the said committee, and then the committee would have to perform a cost benefit analysis over the time & cost of the committee compared to the saving if we turned the light off.
Iāve just received a rather snotty email from the National Union of Third Tier Electrical Routing Switchers
apparently even the thought of switching a light off without being a member of the union would contravene all known legislation :sigh:
