| 595101 | 2007-10-01 08:22:00 | I have tasted ozone in my teeth and around my mouth from a shock I got off the mains when I answered the phone and then came back to a repair I thought I had powered off before taking the call. Felt dizzy and sick for about 2 hours after. I have also been very close to being hit by lightning, I was talking on the phone in my house, in Africa, when a bolt struck the big tree outside, huge bang and flash of light, friends in the room said they saw a huge flash of static from me to the TV about 3 feet away, we went outside and the tree 20 feet from the house had a huge smoking gash 4 feet long in it. Plenty of shocks from an induction shocker I used to have as a child from a Merit Electrical Kit Toyset, wish I hadn't left it behind in Zambia, also miss my Morse Code Set, it was beautifully made, real quality, sadly I didn't know the value of things when I was young. Left behind Meccano Set Number 8, motors and gears, and big Hornby Train Set with about six locos and heaps of rolling stock, the Deltic Loco was my favourite, 3300HP. |
