Hello

The only suggestion I have is charity shops who may have a few from donations/house clearances. When I worked for Age Concern we always kept a few so when english style  lamps were donated we had a bulb to test the lamp & make it saleable again.

Cheers

Since we moved here in 2005 I have had 2 English fitting table lamps and have not been able to find any bulbs to fit.   Therefore, when necessary I have asked visitors, or someone who travels back and forth, to bring a few out to me - well packed, of course, in hold luggage.

Why not just change the bulb socket, it's an easy 5 min. job. A 10 watt LED would be a lot more efficient and last 10 times longer.
