Try Homebase for LED bulbs. My local Homebase were selling 810 Lumens LED (at least 60w) for £7.99

Incidentally, if you are using LED you can exceed the maximum wattage the lamp holder states because the LED doesn't get hot and the actual wattage will be much lower than that anyway.

Thanks, Bob.
I soon noticed how much cooler the bulb was after it had been on a good while (wasn't aware/wasn't the reason I bought it). To be honest, the brightness proved to be enough, so wouldn't need to up the wattage anyway, in my case, but good to know.

I have EHU and the things I always take are: kettle, heater, George foreman grill -its the small one (just because it helps to free up a pan on 2 ring stove) light, phone charger.
If daughter comes then its another bag full of stuff... DS charger, tablet charger, portable dvd player etc lol
I have recently purchased a table top fridge so that's obviously gotta go on ehu now.
My friend takes a toaster - she hates to go without her toast in the morning!
