but if I'm at all
concerned about a wire, I will just brush my finger across it quickly
to see if it is live.

Yeah, I knew an electrician who used to do that (notice the past tense)
he realised it was a stupid idea when he discovered that the extra wires
were actually the other two phases for a three phase supply. Still, live
and learn eh? Or not....
