I am not, nor indeed would I ever try and lay the blame on anyone in this situation - in this scenario nothing happened. There is no blame to be laid on anyone. However had I been struck by lightning then there would be only one person to blame. That person would be me.
"I know we were complete wazzocks for stupidly carrying on but here's the thing. Was the club negligent in its duty to us as customers in allowing us to "call it" on the day ourselves?
Personally I think it was, as had one, or indeed all of us been struck by lightning, would it not have failed in its duty of care by not stopping us using its facilities."
I hate to disagree, but the quoted words from your original post seem to go against what you are now saying.
