Question regarding adding an extra socket to the ring main

The wardrobe will be moved by parnter and his dad. I've seen the telewest

sort of task I wish to perform to get to the socket on a daily basis. If we
can't
budge it then I'll empty it as it was possible to move it (empty) last year
when
we built it.
There is already a spur connected to the ring so I need to include the new
socket on the ring and not as a second spur.
You can have more than one spur on a ring. You just can't have more
than one (double) socket on each spur. There is also a nominal limit
on the total number of spurs allowed, there shouldn't be more spurs
that there are sockets on the ring.
So the simple (and perfectly acceptable) solution for you is to wire
the new socket as a spur.
