Maybe I'm being just a little pedantic, but surely a plug is a plug and a
socket is a socket..? What, exactly, is a "plug socket" ???


You put a lightbulb into a lightbulb socket; you put a plug into a plug
socket.

Hmm, I'll have to think about that one..!

I'm with you! It doesn't have to be wrong or illogical to sound wrong
("train station")...
