StevenH, not just a perception when you compare Wylex and Volex. When I moved into my first new house (1966, April 1st!) all the sockets were Volex. Somehow I found a spare (maybe replaced cooker stand-in or something). It was a good job, because during the 5 years I was there, I changed it many times with different sockets as the brass contacts lost connection. It was always ready, carefully re-tensioned for the next failure. A Wylex would not have done that!
GJ, if you listened to tonight's 6:30pm comedy on R4, you would have had an amusing intro to A.S's ideas and story.
Next week, Marx.
