Bought new bulb for back light and thank goodness watched Tony Av's video on fitting it. My life is now lit up LOL. Found a screw that replaced the rusted one. Happy Days.

Well done, jj ( hope you didn't handle the halogen bulb with your bare
fingers ).

Is that a serous comment tonyav and if so why not

[ummmm]

Doesn't the natural oils from your fingers cause over heating?

[eanceoil]

I don't know, how do the fryer cookers work then? Family wanted to get us an halogen fryer around Christmas time, say it uses only so much oil. I worry now I see that a lamp can be a problem

[tonyav]

Here you go, eanceoil. Read this.

Because the oils on our fingers mark the glass, ean. Best hanled by th cardboard sleeve it come in or a lint free cloth.

thank you for the link, I don't think I want a fryer now, I'm gonna ring son right now and tell him

[eanceoil]

I never guessed opening this on the side posts that it would affect me, thanks jenny joan for and for all who answered me Éan

[jennyjoan]

Tony - I definitely would have touched the bulb - tg I watched your link. Proud of myself.

[tonyav]

Another well done then, jj.

They say some things come in 3s. Right now have just spent an hour putting on a new fan belt on my vacuum cleaner - it had snapped. Also fridge needed a new fuse. God I miss a man - like hell I do!!! LOL
