Thanks for posting those, can't find my original image but am sure it was very wrong, is odd as i am usually very careful to mark where bulbs go in.

mine does fit the description but its still only one fairly small bulb, from the images of pot fulls it looks like a good doer.

I got my Sophie North from Edrom about 1998. always thought it was correct. I will look for the receipt to check the correct date.  Many Computer crashes since then ( thanks Microsoft) so will have to delve into the filing cabinet.

I think that my original (which I lost) came from Evelyn Stevens who was selling them for the Dunblane appeal,(please correct me if I am wrong)many years ago

I bought one to replace it at the gala at the week end ,will try and get a picture later

It is just the pic Mark, bad light and the white balance set to cloudy.
