All it needs is to be a labelled socket. However as the socket is
above the door I doubt the cleaner will accidentally plug in the
vacuum cleaner.

But don't many on here plug in their vacuum cleaner to the central
light via a BC adaptor anyway? ;-)

that only worked with sensibly power machines - not with EU reg
breaking
monsters.

Odd my mother managed with one like that long before the EU was even
thought of. ;-)


And the iron?


But a /triple/ adapter was the key thing to have for the ironing - so
you could see to do the ironing of an evening while watching the tele.


Damn those posh houses with their triple adaptors and a TV:-)

Some of them also had a telephone.
