I know a bit about Ticino plugs and sockets, Malcolm! Yes, the word you shouted there is exactly the one I would have used.  No doubt our "Masters" in Brussels will be imposing all that [censored] [censored] on us here in the UK shortly.  For those who don't understand what it is I'm ranting about ... try this.

Geoff, at least you cited a well respected make in Italy,the market is full of sub standard products(in the same vein, my brother in law purchased an adapter that allows you to screw the adapter into an Edison screw lamp fitting,screw the lamp into the adapter and also to connect two un-earthed plugs to the side of the adapter.......it was even CE marked,go figure!!)

As I have said more than a few times before (although you may have missed them) ... in terms of safety, the CE mark is meaningless. I have a roll of CE stickers. How many would you like? Sorry Mate, but the Southern Sector of the EUSSR will always be a bit maƱana as far as I'm concerned.

Geoff, we may be a little "domani domani" but we are Masters of placing the blame,fault, responsability squarely on the shoulders of some other poor bugger(usually us Biomeds)

Sounds very much in similar vein to bukrah, inshallah, then. Now ... where have I heard that before?
