When my kitchen light started to go I had no idea how difficult it would be to replace it!
Just pop to B&Q you're all thinking, easier said than done without a car and in London (why are they all out of town???)
Everywhere I have looked online either wont deliver or you need to buy 25 of them so any ideas??
Thanks P3

Whats wrong with the small electrical retailer you can still find in most high streets. Whats wrong with people? The sheds are not the "be all and end all" and neither is teh interwebz.

As said local independent electrical shops in most towns sell them as do electrical wholesalers but often they are on industrial estates0
