No problem. It's very rarely clear from the text description in the case of electrical installation! You asked for downsides and really the future potential to create a spur if you extend the ring is the only advantage I could think of. Good luck in the loft, these jobs are very often much worse in the planning and get worse the more you think about them.

Thanks, think I will go for extending if possible then. Don't think I was clear in my description... I wasn't suggesting a string of spurs all off the same point, it would have been several spurs so the cable would drop straight down to each socket. But still I think extending makes more sense like you say. I will have to get back up in my horrible loft and see what I can find, there's cables everywhere!
