Did I or did I not ask you to double-check that the socket was on? Now I've driven 15 miles, what have we found?

I always have this when I go stateside for work, where their light switches are generally up for on and down for off. Of course completely reverse of what I'm used to as a right-pondian Brit. Always takes a day or two to mentally flip over for that one, especially when fumbling for said switch in the dark.
