Trying to wire a 3 way light switch when I haven't a clue which wires lead to which switch

Getting the wrong CD sent out from a Discogs buy. To be fair it's the right album, just the wrong pressing but it's fucking annoying.

Opened the RTE website, saw an "article" titled 'Was St.Patrick A Feminist?'....... Don't forget to pay that TV licence so they can continue to deliver top content......

[astfgyl]

Yep, that TV licence seems like more of a bargain by the year.

Also the CD thing above is pretty annoying. I bought 2 Godflesh albums years ago and it was the same fuckin disc in 2 different boxes, and to make matters worse it was the remix album in both.

A four match gameweek in FPL, hard enough to navigate without Bamford and Son now doubtful. And how the hell do people still have Free Hit and Wildcard chips left?

I have both chips, but I'm also having my worst ever season. Won't be playing the bench boost, that's for sure

[Thorn]

Fair play to ya, I think this season more than any other a large dollop of luck is needed because of the fixture chaos. I'll be doing well to get a five a side team out this week without taking hits.

[astfgyl]

Ah it's awful trying to keep up with it all this season. Strangely enough, soccer 7 nights a week isn't as much fun as I had thought it would be..

[The Heretic]

People you use the term "mate" or "pal"......unless you live in Walford or drink in the Queen Vic please don't do it....I'm not your mate or your pal

[Eoin McLove]

I agree.

[Blackout]

Doing an extra hour last night to clear emails and coming in this morning to a further 25 new ones.

6 year old nephew has to go for a Covid test after being a close contact of a confirmed case at school. This is his second one, he went nuts for the first. I believe they're less invasive now (it changed the day after his first one) but he'll be terrified, kick and scream etc. Poor little fecker.

[Caomhaoin]

Americans in particular saying 'I feel' instead of 'I think'. Shut up!

My own young lads are 5 and they got the same a while back. It was barely put up their noses at all, no bother to them. I said "jaysus that doesn't look too bad" and yer one started laughing before trying to massage the back of my eye with the swab. So yeah it's not bad for the kids at all these days.

[Carnage]

Yeah, it went well for him, no bother. Same lobotomy deal for adults but they've scaled it down for the weans.
