In London, where can I buy an adapter to plug an EU power cable into a UK socket?

@quixoticgeek Argos or WHSmith might be your best bet. Or John Lewis maybe?

@hugh @quixoticgeek most supermarkets or pharmacies large enough to sell travel products. I'm fairly sure the typical "GO Travel" rack has a few EU to UK ones along with many UK to other.

@quixoticgeek use a small stick to press down inside the ground hole of the socket and you can insert the EU plug like normal. I’ve done this a lot but not responsible for the consequences. :)

@hbons yeah, I'd rather not do anything too dangerous...

@quixoticgeek I remember Boots pharmacy sometimes having them. Poundland and the like are also worth a look.

@quixoticgeek interesting. I find all my answers apply to two decades ago.
