Hi.  My daughter has just moved into a property in Valverde and I am house sitting for a few days.  Been looking at some ceiling lights which need replacement bulbs and just not sure how to access the light bulbs.  Is there a way of removing the glass or does the whole fitting need to be taken off to access. See pics below. Hopefully simple enough when you know how but for now I in the not sure camp 🤷🏻. Any help/advice appreciated

Has anyone had experience with Repsol electricity? I use Repsol for my gas tank and they have given a quote with a saving of 16% on my current Iberdrola bills. I can’t find any comments on Repsol electricity on the forum. Does anyone have any advice/opinions?
