    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    I had BBC News on last night (though heaven knows why - the paper review is utter shite), and saw they were about to broadcast Trump's briefing so i turned off and went to bed. I can't believe so many people in his country think he's doing a good job. Or that he is in any way credible!

    So where is the third live for the "loop" - you need a permanent live to the switch as well, but i can only see three reds in total, one of which doesn't go anywhere!

    Death List 2020

    OK, so there were c. 16,000 total deaths in the UK (or it might be England and Wales) in the week ending 3rd April, which they say is a record week (records only began in 2005, mind you). The previous high was in January 2015, which was a particularly bad year for seasonal flu (despite no active...

    You can't make that claim without knowing the number of "total cases", and it would appear that the US are testing far more than UK,. We will likely never know the true case fatality rate UNLESS we test the entire population for antibodies in a couple of months' time. And i'm not sure anyone can...

    What's everyone watching while on 'lockdown'?

    While on the subject of "Millionaire" (weren't we?!), watched the Celebrity episode from Sunday night, and just wanted to mention how gorgeous i think Charlotte Church is, having come through some very tough times a while back. Lovely to look at, and an inner beauty and kindness, it seems.

    That connector block at 12 o'clock is bothering me! You normally put all three live wires into a common connector, or there will be a break in the circuit - either the next light in the ring or the switch for this light will have lost its supply. But equally, why does the bare wire seem to pass...

    Any electrical experts?

    Ah, ok - think i might have it, but it is confused a bit by the angle of the photo and the fact that one of the cables is masked by the metal mount-thingy, so it is actually quite standard (though made complicated by note using a standard ceiling rose arrangement . There are TWO black wires...

    An electrical screwdriver is cheaper than a multimeter! Provided the black isn't live you should be ok taking that to the N terminal.

    Any electrical experts?

    1. Get a short length of twin-core-and-earth cable and prepare the ends. 2. IN GENERAL ... you would run the brown cable from the connector block containing the RED wire to the L terminal on your light fitting. 3. Run the blue cable from the BLACK connector block to the N terminal on your...

    New Labour Leader

    Incidentally @shmmeee regarding your earlier post, during the Blair years, i voted LibDem - their policies were far more Socialist (and, it could be argued, left-wing!)

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    I had to turn off last night, when he started saying in his patronising soft voice "it was me who saw what was happening in China. I saw it coming - ME. So i shut down transport from China". The bloke is a clown, and the likes of Fauci et al are too scared to lose their job to say anything that...
