Just read that Halogen bulbs are to be banned from September- not a concern for me, I already use LED bulbs in our ceiling lights. They run cooler and seem to last longer than the old Halogen GU10 bulbs that we had.

My worry is that the BBC news report also says that fluorescent lamps will follow. I use a tube in the kitchen and really appreciate the coverage - "flat"/even light with few shadow areas, ideal for food preparation.
Other than stocking up on tubes and starters, any other suggestions?
