    Might have been posted before, but reading the instructions on a ready meal to remove the plastic film before cooking...and only the bit outside the seal comes off in a perfect rectangle, leaving you to chop away at the inside bit with a scissors to get it off.

    People who ring you and say 'Hi, it's me'. The most pointless phrase ever uttered - who else would it be except the 'me' who is speaking?

    Tiny dogs who disappear out of sight when you start turning your car. I live in fear of reversing over one at a place I go to regularly :(
    A tree on the road I take out of town was blown down yesterday and the place looks so weird and bare without it.

    I was just about to post the same thing. I'd like an elf to come help me once a week. Just a bit of hoovering and that and maybe scrub down the bathroom.

    Adult twins who dress the same. I've had the misfortune of watching a few minutes of a tv thing about finding the perfect dress. A pair of 30 something twins who dress identical were looking for identical dresses for the races.
    What the actual fück is that about!
    Twins are weird. it's a fact.

    I actually watched that on +1 after seeing your post and thought it was mad. They both had wedding rings on as well, wonder how their husbands put up with it!!

    TA that I have a leaky radiator (not a euphemism)
    I also need to change a light bulb but I can't tell if the switch is on or off.
    I stood on my own toe with my other foot.
    I snagged my new woolly jumper.
    I need a handy man.
    Moving day can't come soon enough.

    I am a ball of anxiety today. Had some stressy stuff going on this morning with a friend and it's making my stomach twist in knots. My missus has also signed the contract for the new job in the UK, starting next month. Eek. I'm now trying to contact CF clinics in the UK to see if I can access healthcare there and register with the clinic for treatment/check ups/IVs etc and do I need to go through my CF centre here or can I do it myself and if I have to pay for my medications (which there is no way on earth I can afford). Grah. Also worried that I am going to be a bored and lonely housewife as the missus is out working and making friends and I'm sat at home wondering what to do with myself (and knowing me probably getting up to no good!).

    Bleh, someone hold me :(

    Have you tried posting on the UK version of boards for some direction on those questions? They may help.

    TA'ed More people who cant read the crystal clear questions on a simple topic I send them. x10000

    There's no real single UK analogue. For health related questions the General Health section on Mumsnet would probably be worth a shot.

    TA'd that I just missed the end of the work canteen opening hours so had to grab something from the vending machine instead for my snack.

    TA that none of yall like cleaning. Actually one of my favourite things to do is clean, TA 2, that's the saddest thing I ever did write

    I'm going to badger my CF clinic here when I see them next and there is a UK charity for CF which also provides information about clinics etc so I just sent them a hysterical email with a hundred questions, poor feckers, they'll be delighted to have me :pac:

    Thanks for that suggestion, I will try that too :)

    If it's a normal flat switch (and wired correctly) and it looks like this: / it's off.

    If it's a dimmer, just twist it all the way to the left.

    Regardless, nothing will happen if you change a normal bulb with the switch on. Just don't put your fingers in the hole.
