don't forget to also unplug your phone line exspecially if your computer is on broadband and yes switch of the TV not turn it up.

You lot sound like my mother.
TV off, phone unplugged, infact everything unplugged.
She never used to be so extreme until the next door neighbours tv got blown across the room during a storm many years ago.

ha ha Rach my nan used to hide all the cutlery, turn all the mirrors around, switch everything off, then hide under the stairs with cotton wool in her ears and a towel over her head. She was terrified.
