Default Light bulbs on Ryanair?

Can I bring some back in my hand luggage when I go home and back from here in July?
They are €6 each here, £19.99 for ten in the UK.

I'd speak to Ryanair and the Airport you're flying from
get them both to email you confirmation if they say it's OK

with what's going on in the World, I'd be doubtful whether they'd be allowed in hand luggage, how much is hold baggage £15, you're still well in profit getting them in the hold

Just had a look through the dangerous goods section in the QRH, 'energy efficient lamps' are fine in checked or carry on baggage or on yourself.

As long as they are in the retail packaging and intended for 'personal use'

Thanks guys.
Raggy: folk on here think I'm made of money because rather than wasting my small pension lump sum, we bought a doer upper in France.
Every £ I can save on stuff like bulbs is a £ I can spend elsewhere. I will be bringing back about 20, bayonet cap and Edison screw, so the savings, £40 against £140 are quite a lot.
I'm replacing some old incandescent ones where fluorescents wouldn't fit, and some older fluorescents that are slow to start.

2000 sq m.
Two walnut trees, one sweet chestnut tree, one cherry tree, several plum trees, one nectarine, one apricot, one white peach, two fig trees, and enough raspberry canes to give me over 15kg last year.

It's an L-shaped dwelling, the long side was two barns, the short side, the house. Now we've built out into the smaller of the two barns on the angle of the L.

I'll have to see what pics I have here, but putting pics up on this site is a ball-ache, what with having to get them hosted first.

you don't have to host, just go to the insert image icon, browse device, pick the picture you want to post, once it's loaded, press insert - job done
from my laptop anyway, maybe not so easy with a mobile ?
