Itā€™s AC, right ?

Doesnā€™t matter if itā€™s AC or DC

Live = Brown and Neutral = Blue

Or Live = Red and Neutral = Black for you old cunts

rather worryingly I spent the evening yesterday wiring in the sockets and posh mirror with LED lights in my parents bathroom.

Oh well looks like Iā€™ll be getting my inheritance earlier than expected now

Before you take on any more mains wiring commissions could you please post the Zoom invite for tomorrow?

Yes but Iā€™m adding an access rule that says you have to cut the Brown or Blue wire before it lets you in.

If you get it wrong you get put on hold with Prog music.

Whenever I list something for sale on gumtree invariably I will get a text within minutes asking if it is still available. I reply ā€œyes itā€™s still availableā€ and every single time I get no further response.

Why would you need to know if my item is still for sale if youā€™ve no fucking intention of trying to buy it? Whatā€™s the fucking point?

Iā€™ve tried stipulating no texts please but that seems to have the reverse effect generating even more texts. Tonight one wanker even went to the trouble of adding me as a contact so he could whatsapp me his moronic query. WTAF is wrong with people?

The only problem with that is I want to sell the stuff. Where would you list stuff that you wanted to sell locally?

(sniggers) Facebook Marketplace

Theyā€™re both full of mouth breathers and chancers. On a more serious note, if your village/town has a managed sales page on FB they can be quite good as the dickheads get known and they dont have all the bots.

Iā€™m pretty certain that the mild-mannered builder who has been listening to a trashy radio station all week is using this afternoon as an opportunity for a spot of DJ-ing.

He keeps fiddling with something - a phone I presume - and weā€™re getting a pretty eclectic selection, funk, soul, disco, but we just hurtled off into LFO :exploding_head:
