Light Bulbs

Another thing that has become very apparent to me is the amount of light bulbs that blow in this house. Now don't get me wrong the house is old, but all the wiring is up to code and very modern. It's also inspected yearly so it shouldn't really be a problem, but so far I think in under 6 months I have had to replace about 20+ blubs through out the house, even the other night the bulbs on the oven extractor blew up, with a real bang that made my girlfriend jump.

The only bulbs I've not had to change have been in the hallway (famous last words), but the front room and dinning room lights seem to eat them. I don't mind a great deal, but it's the overall cost of the bulbs that gets me, as each unit doesn't require what I would call a standard bulb, so the costs are around £2.99 - £4.99 a unit.

Sorry for the poor quality of the photo above, but my camera was having a funny time focusing when I took that one, again really random. But the pictures show the bulbs I have had to replace in the last 2 months, which again is rather concerning.
