Lidl extension lead. This can't be safe...

It was never my company, thanks for playing.

That is because you do not produce olive oil and you never have done.

Oh FFS, are you really this stupid?

Presumably the same way as Filippo Berio sells EVOO in Tesco for =A36.80/ l or Gusto Fruttatto for =A38/l. Napolina Organic Unfiltered EVOO is =A36/ l. Own label Italian EVOO is =A35/l. Yes I would expect all of those to be blended and contain a % of Italian and a % of other sourced oils. But so what when it's only some grease to be chucked over a salad?

If that's all you want, and I agree most Brits simply want something that's soaked in grease to eat (preferably with added sugar and salt), then enjoy.

They are trying to compete with ASDA who have cheap extra virgin olive oil for less than £4/l

Because there is an EU 8 Euro per litre subsidy paid by the taxpayer.

Can you produce a reference for that claim?

Interesting. I tend to visit a large Lidl every week or so but haven't seen a white extension lead on sale. They're always black.

Prolly because it was a figment of his Walter Mitty imagination?

Possibly because F****it Firth only had a olive farm in his imagination?

So, issit cos they is blik?

Hence sheathed pins.

the material

This may be a local thing as I checked out some in a West London Lidl yesterday and both the plugs and sockets were made of the usual rigid plastic. I only noticed them in passing - white extension leads - just checking the plugs out or interest and so I forget to check for any labels to identify them as being exactly the same product line.
