After taking out the outlet and noting down the arrangement of the wiring I carefully made a sketch of the arrangement of the three neutral (blue), live (brown) and earth (green) wires so that should I need to replace the existing outlet I know how to reconnect all the wiring in the correct ports. Of course the easy way out is to go out to buy a new extension device.
However, I am from the old school where if something goes wrong with a device I try to fix the problem first instead of throwing away the old in favour of buying the new.
