Raspberry pi Maplin plug socket integration

Thanks to racarter for directing me to this, but recording here to save anyone else the trouble of getting this installed.

A very cheap way to get automated UK mains sockets automated using a Pi and a very cheap, <£3 433mhz RF transmitter.

The code is here for the Pi

https://github.com/dmcg/raspberry-strogonanoff

Except the code for the wiringpi is now out of date and needs this fork of wiringPi-Python instead. (I tried running this on 3 Pis and spent several hours figuring this out)

https://github.com/neuralpi/WiringPi-Python

I'll add the notes on how to connect to indigo when I get it up and working (which will just be documenting racarter's good work)
