I'm surprised you could fit her with a socket without her noticing. Didn't it hurt?

Awwww .... ;-)
That's the sort of thing my Mrs would appreciate ... like when I would polish her Yamaha 750 Virago.
Flowers would be no good as we don't own a vase and as I cook most nights anyway ...
I've bought a twin USB single gang socket to put up for our daughter (two phones and her laptop) and an MK double for the kitchen ... when I get roundtuit ... ;-(

Ask for one as a birtday present - It wont make any difference - I was given one and it still takes me just as long to do a job. Unfortunately I have lost that excuse

Damn, we don't 'do' birthdays ... ;-(
I am trying to learn to not take on everyone else's 'problems' nor make any more of my own (when it can be avoided).
Like yesterday we were out shopping and she mentioned she might get some new heels on her boots. After watching the guy fit the new heels I considered £11.50 for the two new heels, glue, staples and use of all the tools, sprays and his time as 'money well spent'. That and she was able to walk home in them straight away, not have them sitting there till I managed to get all the materials and tools in the same place ...
It's just that we both normally assume I'll do everything. ;-(
Cheers, T i m

Fire risk - unless you can turn the USB bit off, which you usually can't!

As it is in a metal back box in a brick wall I am not concerned.

Good idea, she can pop it in then sit on the charging plate when it runs out of juice. No need for, um, extraction.

Is killing a monkey more politically correct than skinning a cat?
