To help out an idiot who's tried to electrocute himself?

We had this guy in when we were doing our extension, and he replaced our old fuse box, fixed a few bits and bobs and was generally very good.

A belt normally will only give you a bit of a headache, i've had hundreds and lived to tell the tale.

You are lucky mate, cos electric shocks are fucking horrible, had a fair few in my time and I don't wish them on anyone. I am lucky, I have a high resistance but if you don't then you are a gonner. |

That's exactly what I did when I needed the guy a listed above!
I was putting in a new wall light (replacing an old one) and needed to put in a new rawl plug when BANG! I saw a blinding light, and flew back about 4 feet!
Anyway, your man came over and disconnected the wiring that was still sticking out of the smoking crater in the wall and made it all safe. It's what I refered to above as "bits and bobs"!

More likely I'll go from hypothermia, some sockets aren't working, including the power supply to the boiler.

I had one once, when fiddling about with plugs behind the TV. The shock itself came from the TV after I out my hand on the back to use it as a support whilst bending down, from then on I knew why so many warnings about TV's.
A very very unpleasant experience which hurt for several days afterwards.
