“ Drummond is probably not the only middle-aged man to find himself less excited by rock music than he was as a teenager, but he’s probably the only one to tackle the problem by giving his entire record collection to a charity shop, announcing he’ll never listen to a CD again and assembling a succession of choirs who perform only once without an audience, have their performance played back to them once, then deleted (if this seems a pretty extreme response to not caring much for Duffy or the Ting Tings, it’s probably worth noting that Drummond is a man who initially thought the best way to express his dissatisfaction at the KLF’s sudden success would be to chop his own hand off with a meat cleaver live on stage at the Brits and throw it into the audience).

“ A British officer, Major Summerford, while fighting in the fields of Flanders in February 1918 was knocked off his horse by a flash of lightning and paralyzed from the waist down. Summerford retired and moved to Vancouver. One day in 1924, as he fished alongside a river, lightning hit the tree he was sitting under and paralyzed his right side. Two years later Summerford was sufficiently recovered that he was able to take walks in a local park. He was walking there one summer day in 1930 when a lightning bolt smashed into him, permanently paralyzing him. He died two years later. But lightning sought him out one last time. Four years later, during a storm, lightning struck a cemetery and destroyed a tombstone. The deceased buried here? Major Summerford.
