Has anyone bought from Amazon UK after the new customs charge?

I bought a TP-Link Wifi Extender (€123), and asked AI how much I would have to pay under the new rules.

Found the information very confusing. It said I'd have to pay VAT, but Amazon already collects VAT when you buy. I can see on the cost breakdown that they charged 23% VAT, so the Irish VAT.

So I assumed the information was simply wrong or my prompt wasn't clear, but it said that, besides the VAT, I'd only have to pay 3 euro, which is the new charge for items manufactured outside of the EU, that cost under €150.

Will I have to pay the VAT (again) or just the 3 euro?

Had to decline the ceremony invitation. Will I get invited to the next one?

Have you been in the same situation in the past and got your citizenship?

I was one the people affected by April's ceremony cancellation.

I was invited to June's ceremony, but I had to decline the invite.

Should I expect to be invited to the next ceremony, or do I go back to the end of the line?

Installing floodlight on house's facade

I bought a Nest Cam with Floodlight, and I need to install it on my house's facade. (I don't plan on getting a different one, like a solar-powered one.)

I'd rather not have visible cables. So to power the equipment, I was planning on drilling a hole from inside the house all the way out. But I'm worried it might affect insulation, humidity, etc.

I know that are ways of doing this that minimize the risks, but I was wondering if any of guys has experience with this kind of project, and what is your feedback.
