	Has anyone received their free energy saving light bulb, that we are to receive from Endesa? I thought we should have already had a voucher, in the post, then asked to go and collect a bulb, from somewhere like local Ajuntament? Hey ho!

	We got ours about 3 weeks ago. The lady at the post office gave us a voucher and then she had all the bulbs to distribute a few days after that. Swapped the bulb for the voucher, now in the hall light fitting, which always seems to be left on by mistake, so aint costing a fortune! Jools

	Keep taking the medication, or red liquid stuff, Hazelnut. Maybe you planted the bulbs upside down, or it's too cold, for them.

Beggar They obviously were NOT real energy saving bulbs, because real energy saving bulbs plant themselves

I did manage to get both types but a lot of ex pats have lamps that they have bought over from the UK and obviously use the bayonet type.
