Yersss...

Looking around here - and bearing in mind I had a wall knocked out two
days ago and the job is still in progress - I see:

Cordless phone base
Nixie clock
TV
DTT TV receiver box
DVD player
Amplifier
Printer
RF network hub
Wired hub
LCD screen
Little amp/speakers
Laptop
Cable modem
Firewall computer
Three mobile phone chargers
Working lamp
Two soldering irons
Hair dryer (heat shrink tubing for the shrinking of with...)

And only removed a day or so ago, a fridge and a microwave.

Twenty-one powered items in the living room. Hmmm. Ah well, there are
eight more sockets going in in a twelve square metre (hundred twenty
square feet) extension.
