You're probably right. I've got my head round adding one socket, but I guess two is like this (hopefully the illustration makes sense)
1. One long continuous cable from back of blue plug to purple plug.
2. One short run (green) of cable from purple plug to green plug
3. One long continuous cable from back of green plug back to blue plug (dashed green)
How does it work in terms putting recessed boxes in before plasting? It's a skim coat so I assume I just recess to the current wall depth and any increase is dealt with by the screws?

IANAE but that's how I would do it. Obviously you'd have to "open up" the ring. And, you can just get longer screws if the faceplate sits too far forward after plastering. Annoyingly they are only available in boxes of a million (you might get smaller sets off ebay), but they are very easy to come by.
