Part two, it took a while to wire it in to the lighting circuit. The neutral loop was easy enough to find in the bathroom light, the live loop a little harder. I was expecting to find both loops in the light fitting but nay, the live loop is in the switches.

Fortunately I'm able to 'block' both my debit card, and credit card, in my banking app. Any queries are usually answered, within a couple of hours, using the chat facility. I can't remember the last time I physically spoke to the bank.

The Princess of Wales has announced she is currently undergoing chemotherapy, after cancer was found, following her 'abdominal surgery' in January. Hopefully the speculation will stop now and they leave her alone to recover.
