thesm the ones i mean. not the cube things - they're crap.(Original post by Hoofbeat)
it's far safer to get liken a 6-plug extension lead rather than the 3-way adapters that u plug directly into sockets....particularly as the colleges have a habit of sticking huge great cupboards/bookshelves infront of the actual plug sockets! You need to get ones with surge protection though. -

Eeek. I'm arriving a day early, so I don't think there will be many helping hands and I have a huge suitcase. In the event that I actually get to my college with it, then being anywhere higher up that the first floor will mean that I'll sleep over in the hall .. until someone comes and helps me(Original post by dancingqueen)
