Thanks Dogwalker, I might try some thin knitted gloves.
I've also had shocks off water taps but this turned out to be a faulty earth in the house I was living in. Apparently it can be quite dangerous, even fatalaties have been recorded. A building electric system is often earthed through the old copper plumbing pipes but in dry conditions, or if there's a loose earth connection, then it is possible to receive a shock through the taps. Might be worth checking out!
