    You can still use a 2 pin into a 3 pin socket , use a pencil to press into the top one

    Hi
    There is a couple of other ways to do it, the brutal one is to cut the 2 pin plug off and fit a 3 pin one (cables under the black sleeve are colored brown & blue) Or go onto that popular auction site and put 'Euro Plug Adaptor' in the search field (£2/£3 delivered)
