I used to have the dimmest bulb in my bedside light to read, but during one of my charity shop visits I found an American product called The Light Wedge (boxed and unused), which is basically a piece of perspex with LED's shining through it from one end. It just fits the page, acts as a bookmark, and is dimmable too. I had a look on the net and they cost about $34 in the US. It never disturbs hubby now when I'm reading and the light is directly on the page.<br />Rose <br />xRose H (UK)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03502158211136467582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703817848238285099.post-62212044772541282962011-04-17T10:46:57.918+01:002011-04-17T10:46:57.918+01:00Hello Rose

It sounds as though you are a bit of an owl in any event. I don't read at night on two counts, one it wakes up OH having the light on and second, it wakes me up as I really just need to read that extra page and carry on reading regardless. The rib roast last week was delish so much flavour. Hope you have a good day too.<br /><br />Take care <br /><br />Pattypan<br /><br />xxPattypanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10533048669555871726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703817848238285099.post-18937963005836795012011-04-17T01:04:46.471+01:002011-04-17T01:04:46.471+01:00Sounds like the garden is coming on well Tricia, t...Sounds like the garden is coming on well Tricia, the only problem is it's never done! Have you tried growing your own spuds? I planted about a dozen last year in sacks on the patio and was pleasantly surprised with the crop, I just delved in the compost to take as many out as I needed for a meal so they were always just picked fresh :o) I (finally) planted some more yesterday and am looking forward to the harvest already. <br />Sorry to hear you are not getting your rest, I'm lucky I don't suffer with such painful problems, but I'm probably one of the worlds worst insomniacs. I'm never in bed before 2am as I don't see the point in tossing and turning and then I usually read for at least half an hour (though often see 3am pass by with still not a wink). The worst part is I wake around 7.30 and cannot bear to stay in bed - little wonder I have bags as big as shopping trollies beneath my eyes!<br />Hope you enjoy Sunday, I'm still thinking about the rib roast you had last week!Rose H (UK)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03502158211136467582noreply@blogger.com
