Old boy John Wayne took my horse that's real cowboy. Thanks for all you're sensible suggestions. Decided to just use wife's stocking with sockets on both ends and take notice of members of homeownershub forums who seem to be more helpful rather then criticise now have extension and it hasn't set fire yet

"Yet" being the opperative word. Home owners hub may seem more helpful, but how sure can you be that the info given by said Forum is the correct information?
On a personal note I have given what I consider good electrical advice and information, if you choose to ignore that advice then the onus is on you, you must have realised by now that the advice you have been given, in most parts has been given in good faith, so by all means take advice from others, but be assured that any advice I have given has been correct and unbiased, I wish you luck, and please don't trip over that dodgy extention lead you intend to install.

Gone from home made extension lead to clipped direct possibly becoming radial or spur from existing circuit?? It might work but isnt kosher under the regs.

Got to agree with you there the installation method has now changed to a fixed installation.
 
I'm just gutted no one has answered my question in post #40.. :sob:
