Bad Light Stops Play !

 
Don't want to start ranting about modern life etc - BUT !  , I've had to take down the game I had set up to replace the light bulb which is over my gaming table AGAIN ! (being short and not very long armed to reach the light fitting). This one only lasted about a year ! , the one before that lasted at a guess 15 years !!!!!! . Okay so when it happened before I should have had the room rewired with spotlights but I did expect the bulb to last longer . Another one for the 'to do' list !.

  1. Hmmm, I smell a ruse! Capt Toby probably had the good Corporal sabotage the light bulb so that they could sneak in to the camp while Johnny C. is sleeping!

  3. I spent a goodly portion of my packing up for the conventiom time today in the basement with a snake, the metallic kind, and a plugged waste disposal pipe. I can relate to the personal nature of infrastructure failures!

  4. It appears to me that light bulbs have a distinctly shorter life than in days of yore. I change my painting desk lamp bulbs every couple of months, which costs pretty penny too...like you say, modern life :-(
