Thanks Robsonde Yes that worked perfectly. We had tried gently pulling but a good tug was in fact needed. OK once you know that is the correct method. There is only one screw holding it to the wall and I am not expecting any further trouble except - the thing has been used for over 10 years and comes on every time the bathroom light is used (often as it is a rather dark room). We have had several main bulbs go in that time including one of the so called long life jobs. So what happens when I need a replacement for this bulb - are they available - I have never seen any before myself and neither had the several people congregating in the room and trying to get it off. I thank you too Metla. Your method was highest on our list if nothing else turned up. The hammer has been rested. Glad to see my title invited curiosity!	Thomas01 (317)
