No discrimination between the two fuses? One in fused spur other in appliance plug top, should use 20 dp switch instead of fcu.

both ok
but having the spurs connected on the ring ( A ) rather than though the sockets will make it easier to balance loads over the ring , so slightly preferable.

Thank you all, Method A makes life easier to lay out the spurs in the kitchen area.

Method A too, but would be using DP switched if feeding fixed appliances via socket and a plug.
