Excuse me for this mild rant. Somebody must have decided this was a good idea for all sorts of good reasons but I can't for the life of me, think what they could be.

I want to know .... and I feel there must be a good answer somewhere... and someone else must be able to clear it up for me ... why do almost all mobile charger cables... maybe it is all... have the plug the wrong way around? By wrong way, I mean when you plug it into a mains socket, the wire comes out above the earth wire (UK 3 pin plugs) and gets in the way of anything else you want to plug in ... purposely ... a pain in the neck if you ask me?

I find this really irritating... really. It may sound stupid but if you have an adaptor, or an extension lead, it often stops you using another plug in the adapter or lead. Does anyone else find this a pain? Oh come on... I can't be the only one!

It has really started to irritate me because my house is full of extension leads and adaptors because it's badly wired and there aren't enough outlets and it's catching on because lots of adapters are the same now.

Madness ... ha ha ha
