That is one unlucky lad. Then again, lucky for still being alive to tell the tale #:-S

13 is lucky for me. When my daughter Layla was born, it was at 03:13 on Friday the 13th :YMDAYDREAM:

Heard about this yesterday - I was always told as a kiddy not to use an umbrella in a thunderstorm - pleased no-one was seriously hurt tho'
In memory of a very dear friend - Mike Pearson

Very fond memories of Robbie Gilvary - DTs 1st Vulcan Captain who taught DT all he knew.

Yep, I was also taught not to use an umbrella in a storm and don't stand under a tree either. Apparently the most common place people are struck by lightning is on Golf Courses. Another reason not to play golf ;)
