Do it yourself you lazy git.

Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.

But i dont thats why i am asking for help :rolleyes:

a. SWA.

Many people think the 'S' stands for something, it doesn't, it's a common misconception. It actually stands for something else, (or it did when I was an apprentice).

Some people wil accept either answer, some will accept the correct answer only and some will accept the incorrect answer only.
