23rd September . The day of the Light Bulb.

 As you are all aware today is the day for presenting the lightbulb..which only happens once every 10 years. Similar to Easter, light bulbs are formed in chocolate and children have to search the car parks and underpasses for light bulbs hidden by the electric fairy. This is to celebrate the historic switching on of the grand filament of  7 Watts.

Or just another excuse for me to put my light bulb catalogues to good use…
