Just a minor warning: I had an extension lead on my desktop, in a
sunny position. I've just thrown it out, as the plastic has crumbled
away. Potentially very dangerous, as the conductors were showing.

This was discussed here months ago. I think that the poster was dennis@home
or something.
It was suggested that some heavy object had fallen onto his extension lead.
He posted a dropbox video of the crumbling plastic and his fingers removing
little bits of plastic.

It's definitely crumbling of the plastic, not impact damage.

It's made by Masterplug, which I had thought was an okay make?
