Get the Did I fuckmug. A task or duty that is mildly tedious and something you would rather not do. Less severe than a task which is a, "right ball ache"
Having to do your timesheets at 17:30 on a Friday before you can leave work is a bit of a ball ache.

Get the a bit of a ball achemug. A "Wide Game" is a term used in UK scouting to describe a game that is played over a wide area usually in a field or in the woods. These games are the Scouting equivalent of "busy work" and are typically badly organised, boring as hell and hurriedly put in place by one of the younger leaders because the senior leaders have not taken the time to prepare a proper program.
It'd be more productive and fun to let the scouts have some free time to play football (soccer in the USA) or come up with their own games rather than subject them to this monotony.

Scenario: A typical Scout Camp weekend away, everyone has just eaten and is looking forward to chilling out and having a rest in the evening sun but then suddenly...
Scout Leader: Right scouts, time for a Wide Game. I have a deck of cards and you will each receive a card then you will run around and when you encounter another scout you must show each other your cards and if your card is of the opposite colour and you out rank their card, the highest ranking card must chase the lower ranking card. If you catch them you can claim their card and return it to the scout leader. The team who has captured the most cards at the end of the game wins.
Typical Scout: Skip that sounds over complicated and boring as hell, can't we just play football? (soccer in the USA)
Scout Leader: You are excluded from the game and get to sit by this tree. Everyone else get to it.

Get the Wide Gamemug. Used specifically in Ireland by a parents or teachers to denote when a child has behaved or is behaving badly.
Some chap in my class found an empty birds egg on the beach so carried it home carefully in the car, brought it into school and put it on display. Upon noticing it on display I took the initiative to strength test it and crushed it in my hand. He was very upset upon returning to the display to see it crushed and started crying. When the teacher found out I was denounced as a “bold, bold boy,” to my entire class.
In Ireland if something is fun, it's probably bold.
