I'm sorry you have to live this way

Not mine, but two collages of mine.

Over lunch we were discussing what we cook for dinner most nights etc.

The two of them live together and said that they don't cook they have a food delivery service that delivers nutritious hot home cooked meals to their door every night at 7pm

They complained that on Wednesdays the food isn't as good as other days.

Anything but building new houses

Once I have my own house in South Africa, I'm switching all the plugs over.

Let's hope the movement catches on, I hope Brazil switches to the 16A specific standard.

After making this post, reading all the comments and doing even more research. I have to say I 100% agree with you.

That doesn't ground a lot of plugs

I hope they cling on and make somewhat of a comeback, or carve out a niche market, but I don't feel sorry for them at all. The are guilty of shade monopolistic tactics.

You have this and variants of it, with the plug being recessed you could probably have it take up less space in all dimensions over the UK plug
