...hi mids on tour ....just bring one with you from uk...take a two pin plug like you would use in spain ...plug the extension in the two pin and bingo ...you can then use all the things you mentioned......if your worried about that you can get a plug there for next to nothing and just plug the extension in to that..... :idea: :idea:

make sure that the extension lead is anti-surge because the current is rather unstable in Goa.

You can buy a four gang socket that takes any type of plug and is fitted with anti-surge for anything between 80 and 300 rupees. Try Give and Take electrics next to Centurian bank in Calangute. I've also seen them for sale in supermarkets.

I don't quite understand the question??/ having a blonde day!!!
The extension I have is a long piece of plastic attached to a cord which is attached to an indian plug. The plug goes into the wall socket. The long plastic bit has x4 sockets which take either indian or UK plugs.
I can't describe it any other way than that, hope this makes sense.

Mids,
Mine is actually an indian 3 pin input. Best to check whether you have 2 or 3 pin in your hotel room as both are used in Goa.
