In the mist of this hang over this morning mate, you've just made me laugh real hard when i read that.

Kermit is one, and so is miss Piggy and so are you my friend!

I'm glad you enjoyed that one Flanker!

Of course we won't mention the time I grabbed too much front brake in a panic attack and lowsided myself into the gutter, then a rubbish bin, and then a rather large tree! That hurt, but nowhere near as much as the Z1000.

The Z1000 accident was something like out of Mr Bean. There were a few moments of me realising that I was not going to be able to avoid this clown and sort of bracing thinking "This is gonna hurt" and then impact. I pushed the steel tank in with my genitalia, snapped a ligament in the outside of my wrist, banged my recently operated on knee and caught my ring finger between the handle bars and the car so that I didn't superman over the car but swung around with my arm acting as a fulcrum and slapped down on the boot of the car. I was writhing around in pain clutching my nuts when I rolled off the back of the car boot - well the car was fitted with a towball wasn't it, so this completely hooked up on my ribs and turned me over into the gutter. So I now had one hand on my nuts and the other on my ribcage and was rolling around in the gutter. OUCH!

Very funny stuff.
