Ha, ha nice one. In Newcastle we don't all talk like Jimmy Nail! Many Geordies are quite intelligible and can string a coherent sentence together. I myself can slip into the Geordie vernacular from time to time if ' ya kna wora mean like' aka 'If you know what I mean, like ' As for the post...

Chance Taker, I like that. The origins of my user name? If you wish. In the wonderful film adaptation of Being There ( Dir: Hal Ashby 1979) Peter Sellers plays a simple minded gardener called Chance who has never left the house he lives in. His entire life experience is from watching television...

Oh touché, touché Bernie love. Wonderful retort. I must however reiterate what the electrian said that it wasn't a safety risk it's just one spotlight not working but let me not, dear sweet Bernie, take from you your witty post. Good day to you sir, I said good day. X

Right this is my final word on the matter. I do not want to take the light down, send it back to Amazon, buy a new one and have the chap come back out and refit it. My good lady and I are going to live with the two spotlights working as the illumination it provides is fine. My original post was...

I have, in fact, hundred of books on film and theatre. Here's five more from my extensive collection.

Here's the light in question. It doesn't look like it's going to kill the family, what? Here's the book I shall be reading. Highly recommended . It explores key moments in films. Wonderful read. X

The electrician said it wasn't dangerous so a big raspberry to you! Calling me names! How horrid. Now, where's my Halliwells film guide. X

This is no joke but I'm not going to all the hassle of taking the light down and sending it back, getting a new one and then paying £30 to have it fitted. It works well with two spotlights and during the day you can't even tell it's partially broke. Love always. X

Exactly. Now let's forget all about this light business and get to something important. Films. As for Jonah Hill I'd thought of him as a perfectly decent comic actor but what a different side he revealed in WOWS. Great performance. I will check our 21 Jump Street and it's sequel.

I loved it. It's up there with Goodfellas and Taxi Driver as one of Scorsese's best in my opinion. I loved how decadent the lifestyle was and although the main protagonist was an absolute 'bleep' in many ways, you couldn't help but wish him well. I thought the supporting cast were superb in...

Now now chaps let's not get silly. I must say that I fully intended to do something about the light had I got the answer I wanted which was, and here I will adopt the persona of a tradesman, ' all you need to do mate is unscrew the fitting and stick another one in mate'. Obviously this isn't...
