If it was, the house was missing.
Lampshades quickly discarded, many additional lampholders and bulbs
purchased.

Lamp holders and "pink lampshades"?

I started "playing" with electricity 38 years ago when I was 3.

My Grandad caught me poking a nail into a 5amp socket (luckily it was the
Earth pin) and decided it would be safer if he bought me a low voltage
electrical set. It consisted of 2 lampholders, two bulbs, a couple of
plastic lampshades (pink & green) and a couple switches along with wire
and
batteries. [Was that a "Turner Prize DIY Kit?"] Since then I have
made
several unsuccesful attempts at electrocuting/blowing myself up.

Biggest fuse I ever blew was a 100 Amp supply fuse whilst a nightclub was
open, blacked out one of the bars but the sound and light carried on.

I started "working" with electricity when I was 13 assisting the
electrician
at the local Pontins Holiday camp.
