Looking to move back
Presently been out of the gulf for 6 yrs now. And I am getting seriously fed up with the present UK g'ment taxing the arse out of everything. Therefore a relocation is in order, so does anyone know of or recommend a decent company thats looking for infrastructure utility designers.
If anyone know of anything then all replies greatfully accepted. tia ubdai |

Okay, fair enough, there's a difference. They're called "fees", not "taxes" ;) |

I've just read this back and its become aparent that although I can wire a plug, I can't talk about them in a clean manner! It does work though, I have a DVD player, mobile phone, external hard disc and external DVD writer plugged in this way. |

Ah, but they do! You need to use something (non-metal with the socket switched off) to push in the plastic flappy bit on the top hole on the socket

You can buy little plastic adapters designed specifically to allow you to plug 2-pin plugs into 3-pin sockets in Geant, Carrefour, Ikea, Ace and probably lots of other places as well... they usually come in bags of five or ten, for about 5-10 dhs. I'm kind of surprised that beebee didn't know about them.
