Of course electricity companies prefer not building new plant, so
shovel out ridiculous 4W 5W 7W 9W 12W bulbs. They are quite useless

Ooo, where can you get 4W BC CFLs from as the 8Ws we have on
dusk_to_dawn auto switches in the front and rear lobbys are way too
bright. ;-)

CPC have some 3W BC candle (ish) lamps at 95p in their latest flyer

They look like they would be ideal but I've not ordered from them for
yonks. What are the delivery costs like?

I think it is post free over £50 vat ex.

It's over £45 ex VAT (unless it just went up).

However, for the last several weekends, it's been post free for
orders placed over the weekend if you use some magic words which
they give on the home webpage (or might have been post free over
£20 - I can't recall exactly).

They have so much useful stuff though it is almost impossible not to
spend £50!!

Yes. I started doing an order a couple of weekends ago, but missed
the Sunday 24:00 deadline. A couple of days later, the order went
off, having crept up to £120 (not all of it for me though;-)

Also watch out that they seem to regularly take their systems
down for maintenance on Sunday evenings.
