Shadeless drill or maybe a non-standard lamp.

Perhaps a benchside light?

Did you hear the one about the table lamp that thought it was an electric drill?

It's boring.

I really enjoyed that cartoon SW. A clever of version of the old story ie she's brought a friend with her. One woman expressed interest in a decorative bathroom door I offered for free. I took it round in the evening, only to find she had her entire Yoga Class present
