First time, in eight years of ownership and I've now chucked it in a hedge. Total fuc up on my part.
I went to put the side stand up and I stood it up to far... and over to the other side. My garden hedge took the impact, but I had to fight my way into the shrubery to pick the Julie up. Damage: small scratch on the tank, scuff on the crash bobin, and my broken pride.
And it got worse later in the day. Flying a helicopter in the back garden after work. Airbourne for all of a minute and a small gust took it into another hedge. Damage: rear rotor blade broken, canopy cracked, and more broken pride.
Then later it got even worse. Spark ignitor on the cooker has now thrown a wobbly. The flame in the oven blew out and the ignitor did not re-ignite the gas, when most of the time while cooking the thing wouldn't shut up. Luckely I smelt the gas... from the other end of the house.
No my iphone pile of phoo has started to malfunction over wether there's a network on the sky.

Some say that he eats habanero chilli peppers dipped in oil of capsaicin for extra bite and that his pyjamas are made from Nomex. All we know is, he's called Ad the Bad
