to MC Andrew J Green:

> What are the rules and regs on plugs on this board?

UK-style 3 pin plugs, 13 Amp max.  Must conform to the relevant
British safety standards.

We'd appreciate it if you kept usage purely for the operation of
Speccies, TVs (for Spectrum display only) and related peripherals.

Oh, *those* plugs.  You will be liable to pay the Plug Tax to the
Authorities.  It is currently set at the rate of Seventy-Five Pence
and One Packet of Rolos.
