Question

Do you replace the (good, old fashioned) flickering light bulb while it's still flickeringly alive or wait til it creepily flickers itself to death all moth-like?

...flickering light bulb?

I've never encountered a light bulb that wasn't either working perfectly, or dead. Do you guys use a different kind of light bulb on your side of The Pond?

The only flickering lights I've encountered are fluorescent tubes that are on the way out, and those things do my head in, so I'd dump them the instant it became a problem.

YMMV..

Yeah Dominic, I think it's that I live in a really old building with really really old wiring (still have screw in fuses) so thinks work a little differently :)

Ok Anonymous, I'll wait ;)

Sorry to hear that your Dad isn't doing well.

Sending you good vibes and positive thoughts so you can be free to be a basket case for a bit.

Let it flicker! It seems more festive that way :)

Thanks JS

I guess it's festive TL, but it also makes me think the power's about to go out :)
