And while I'm sorting out my garden electrics, I'd like to replace the
2-pin in-line plug (ie, the male bit) on my Black-and-Decker strimmer
with a comparable plug from Flymo (which would enable me to use my
strimmer and mower interchangably on the same extension cable).

Is it possible to obtain such a thing? Is the 2-pin plug on a Flymo a
proprietary item? If so I'm probably stuffed - have looked on their
spares website and can't see it offered.

Find a scrap flymo and cut one off.

But the plug is actually built in to the handle of the flymo; you offer
up the female socket on the normal lead... so you'd need a hacksaw to
cut off the plug and even then you wouldn't end up with anything
remotely electrically safe!
