The former is fresh cheese (few days old) rather than typical cheeses which are more aged. Cheese is not yoghurt

I bought this lamp yesterday. It was £3.15, so quite a bargain, but it didn't come with a bulb. What type of bulb will it need?🤔

Edison screw depending on size it could be a standard or an SES (small Edison screw) how big is the hole ? hard to tell without something to scale it to. I'd hazard a guess at an Edison screw 'reflecter' type bulb.

Looks to be E14 often also called SES, it really should say somewhere as it might melt if you used a high wattage old style bulb as opposed to cooler LEDs

How can homeless people take out smart phone contracts? They'll need one to access medical services once the new digital ID cards come in.

Well I certainly will not be getting a 'smart phone'

It's difficult to measure it with a metal retractable tape measure with it being in its shade, but I've done my best and it looks 1 inch across.

Ah, just seen in tiny print on the attached label that it takes a E14 LED bulb Max 8w.

It will have something like this on the label
E14 is the type of bulb it takes. Which should be an LED type with max 8W power.

I cannot believe that is going to be a requirement, but that is what reports say.
And since it is going to be compulsory, if it does require a smart phone, that mean they would also be compulsory.
Which is utterly ridiculous, if true.
Though the BBC report does say "The practicalities of the scheme will be subject to a consultation, which will also look at how to make it work for those without a smartphone or passport."

Edison screw then,you can get those in 'reflecter' type bulbs at 4-6 and 8 watts

I help out at Age UK helping people with IT things
I have helped several people who do not want a "smart Phone" for various reasons
but I am sure all that will be thought out and sorted
If only because the media will be out looking for pensioners and disabled people who are messed up by it when the details come out
I can see the Age UK IT help service being swamped with helping people get it sorted out ina few years - at the moment it is the NHS app - but this will come along and take over I reckon
Only the Gods know how my Mum and Dad would have coped with it - Dad was blind and in a wheelchair - Mum had dementia
still - as I said - I am sur eit will all be sorted out - somehow

It is not the lack of knowledge, I passed my UCDL* course but I will not have anything that tracks my location every minute and takes away money better spent elsewhere.
* European Computer Driving Licence.................I am IT literate but I object to being followed and tracked every minute, not because I'm doing anything 'wrong' just on principle.
