Hi , it is reasonably easy ...once you know how , all reds should be together in a connection block ( plastic block - electrical block bought from any large diy store ) then you have all earths together ( if metal light fitting then an earth needs connecting to body of fitting , best way - connection block all earths from ceiling and run a earth wire from there to light fiting . Now there may be a problem ! You have three black wires , one of these is the switch wire back to your light switch , even though you may think this is not a live wire it can be so it needs to be and should be marked with a red sleeve .I f it isn't try a little further up ,it may have moved . Ok the two BLACK wires which are not sleeved should connect to the blue flex wire from light , the black wire that is sleeved should be connected to the brown flex wire from light .. Ok . easy aint it . Any probs get back to the forum. Remember 230 volts hurts SWITCH of circuit before taking any action . Cheers and good luck ( be safe) Jeff
