I note that it's been announced today that incandescent lightbulbs are to
be phased out over the next couple of years:

I'm not unduly perturbed (as most of my home is fitted with CFLs anyway)
except that the kitchen and bathroom are fitted with low voltage halogen
downlighters.

Presumably these will go the same way as conventional lightbulbs, won't
they? If so, is there an alternative 'bulb' I'll be able to use, or will
I need to replace the fittings? (and therefore my ceilings :-( )

Never mind the lamps dangling from the ceiling ..... What about the filament
bulbs in my;-
fridge; grill; oven; hob-fan; and .... tumble dryer? Not to mention the
headlights (dual filament); stop lamps; reversing lamps; brake lamps;
indicators ..... . ?
