Lightbulb

Steevie, You forgot Johns Cross Leisure where to buy a lightbulb

 

[Peter JohnsCross MH]

If it was Motorhome Fun all you would need is two, one to hold the step ladder and one to put the bulb in.

At least 3 to comment that Old Mo still uses candles.

Is the light bulb in a woosie, weekend and holidays motorhome parked at a campsite with EHU or...

...a rufty, tufty, off site, fulltiming, freeloader's motorhome parked where no one can see the grey water emptying out of the tank?

If the latter, and it is in mainland europe, get the EU to give you a grant to pay for an electrician to do it.

Then take photos and post on Fun to get ShiftZZ all excited!

If parked in the UK just send the bill to Far Rage and get him to pay for it out of all the tens of thousands of euros he has been paid by the organisation he says he wants to leave...

JJ :Cool:

The OP missed:

1 person to post the obligatory Google link to prove light bulbs are the real meaning of life.:thumb:

 

[wivvy's dad]

1 person to post the definitive Wikipedia link to detail the history of the incandescent lamp, and its iterations over the years, ie: bayonet, Edison screw etc etc

Light bulbs are so yesterday!! Surely it would have been changed to a LED by now.

Now who is giving discounts to funsters for LED's??

Peter

And if it wasn't MF, one to hold the bulb and a good few to twist the ladder

Management says no.

Just curious, that's all.
