hi, looking for some professional advice. I am needing more sockets in my room for my games console as my tv and sky box have taken up the only two available. I have suggested to my mum that we get one of these 4 socket extension bars from argos but she does not think they are safe.
Any advice...

So why didn't the mobile network return them "undelivered" - a bit like emails do.
Just wondering
Thanks
