Shocking Fun!

Was sat in the garden happily lappytapping and suddenly took a shock to my pinky, my arm flailed in the air and I was all "WTF" being stupid and curious I poked the headphone jack on my Acer where I thought the shock originated..oh look just shocked myself again!

I looked around the interwebs, and found fook all help, I thought it could be the fact I am using an extension lead as I was sat in the garden, so I moved into the shed and plugged lappy direct into the wall, the power cable shocked me before I could even plug it in..Having been shocked approximately 5-8 times I decided to turn my laptop off and move to the upstairs computer, did a bit more searching and came across some "Earthing" lark, I plugged my cable in upstairs and poked the connection, I guess this is a pretty stupid thing to do, poking a lead that has already electrocuted me various times, nothing happened.

I assume the electrical wiring and set up down the garden is different to that in the house, I will attempt to connect my laptop up later and let you know if I get a shock!

Just filling you in with my action packed day!
