adding 3 additional sockets

Sorry Magic, at the minute, your installation is what I would classify as "At Risk".

I assume the circuit is wired in 2.5 (or equivalent), and it is not a ring final, so a 30A breaker is too big for the circuit, with 2.5 rated at less than 30A.

If all you have is a radial, the breaker needs downsizing to 20A, assuming the circuit covers no more than 50 sq metres. Then you can run the feed from one socket to the next.

If you have a broken ring, this will need further investigation.
