!!!!!The coal hole in our house in Clarion St., was in the living room, next to the fire. The coal man carried the bag through the house then dumped the coal, and the dust went everywhere in the living room! Oh what fun! !!!!!!
Sorry to hear about your bump. Easily done. I have a ‘motion sensitive light’ battery powered on the landing, for just those occasions.
I believe you live in Northern Ireland, so don’t know what shops you have there, but Robert Dyas and Maplins sell them for less than £10.00. They’re very useful.
