Light Bulbs. Now there's an interesting subject...

It has come to be known that we don't all agree on the current offer of light bulbs-to be more precise the Eco friendly light up and last forever types.I am told that the said bulbs give out a poor low light and they take too long to crank up , and the idea of reading has therefore long passed. No Eyebrow plucking there then at the last minute, and G-d only knows quick facial inspections are a thing of the past.Leaving the house with gone with the wind hair and too much mascara is a thing I must get used to. It would appear that he holds a majority view, and I am to be given to buying all of the remaining shelf stock from Waitrose of the old currency style standard bulbs so that in the days ahead, arranged pre-leave-the -house appearance can be maximised...Perhaps I should never look in the mirror again-just take to simply hollowing out a giant Cadburys cream egg, fitting it neatly over my head like a bike Helmet. That way the mascara and hair will be oblivious to the world Perhaps not. As I shortly to enter the hallowed Charleston House in Sussex I am guessing they don't want 2lbs of chocolate dripping on to Duncan Grants ceramics, so as they say up north-I "shall pack that idea in". Onwards and upwards...
