This morning I have been changing a light fitting in the bedroom. What is the correct number of times that you should get an electric shock before deciding to turn the power off? |

Last time I tried that I removed the Lighting fuse but still managed to create a small bolt of Lightning that Blackened the end of my Screwdiver and threw it across the room....Now its all power off before I even think about attempting home electrics. |

When the undertaker is nailing the lid shut I did a search of my name and town today and there was something strange come up. There was an obituary saying that I had died suddenly on February 7th 2015 |
