Whilst on a safety note, it might be worth considering whether the light bulb supplied by the hotel is kept to a low wattage because of cost consideration, or because any shades used do not allow for the extra heat generated by higher wattage bulbs? So many lamp shades on sale in the UK these days are for 60W bulb maximum - you really have to search for 100W rated ones. This is, of course, to cover the manufacturers' backs, but it is a *fire* risk to be aware of. You can get a higher equivalent wattage by opting for low energy bulbs, if available. Where daylight bulbs are concerned, one of the things we learnt on a visit to The Textile Conservation Centre in Liverpool is that daylight bulbs give out the most UV rays - and are therefore the most harmful to use with textiles. The old fashioned tungsten bulbs were the least evil! -- Jane Partridge -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
