This follows up on abdomen's suggestion that a basic IR controlled mains switch would be the simplest way of doing this - at least for those of us who are not gifted with either the time or the skills to go cooperised's route (and sadly I have neither).
After a little searching I found a velleman project kit (some simple assembly required!) which offers an IR controlled 240V 5A relay. It is the K6713 available from CPC in the UK for £20 here http://cpc.farnell.com/jsp/endecaSearch/partDetail.jsp?SKU=HK00755&N=411 (you may have to click on this link twice to get the right page) and info here http://www.velleman.be/common/product.Aspx?lan=1&id=9356 . The next problem would be how to get the right IR code output from the IR blaster. There is a pronto ccf for the velleman IR codes from remotecentral.com, but I don't know how you could put these codes into the plugin.
