Hello! I am trying to replace a weird old light fitting with a simple white bayonet fitting.

When I pulled the old ceiling lamp thing off I found 4 cables dangling down, I need these to fit into my fairly generic bayonet fitting.

Whats the best way to do this given I have 4 rather than just 1 or 2 and I don't imagine they will all fit into a single screw fitting easily.

The new rose is clearly marked and if you prepare the cables first they will easily fit, you may find at least one terminal will need to have 2 cores in but it appears all the others may just have 1 single core, if unsure look in the Wiki or read up on connecting Loop in ceiling rose wiring
Is there two lights on the same switch
