Nice & easy 😊! Today, Dave and Gosia visited Camden right after their working hours to help out Ms M with fixing lights in her living room 🛋. She has four wall light fittings that aren't working and needed help in changing the lightbulbs in those that are in good shape.

After our arrival we have noticed that the room was quite dark and - as Ms M explained - a lamp standing next to an armchair was a main source of light.

We quickly checked (well Dave did :)) why all the wall lamps don't work and only in a case of one it was there was a need to change a lightbulb. We have found a matching one from Ms M's spare ones and put it in place. There was also one lamp that required a max 60 watt bulb with a screw that wasn't available at a moment. The rest of lamps required fixing and we haven't had proper tools to do it (it would be a bit too risky as well).

We were glad though that at least we managed to make Ms M's room a little brighter. She was thankful and pleased with the outcome. It might be worth to think about another GG visit soon to get a right bulb and sort out the second lamp.
