My local electrical shop ran out of proper rough service bulbs over a year ago, and the guy said he can't get them any more. Fortunately I have several proper spares, as opposed to the candle "rough service" bulbs I saw on a street market stall recently. The only proper GLS bulbs in my local Robert Dyas last week were some SES reflector bulbs packed as Lava Lamp bulbs, not suitable for general illumination, 25W.
