    Anyone on here know the whereabouts of the missing WBs (wandering bikers) last spotted somewhere in deepest Wales on their return from the NEC?

    ;D

    Hope you all got home safe

    What happened?

    Yep we are all home safe and sound Ken.
    Rather long journey there and back due to flooding, delayed or cancelled trains.
    It's Lilac... not pink!

    Not so much us Ken, but there was a poor woman who'd been travelling since 6-ish this morning, and had already been on 8 trains! We left her at Bristol still needing to travel for another 2 hrs!

    WOW, where was she travelling from, THE MOON.
    When it's your time to go it's your time, so don't let it catch you.

    Its got to be one of the most ummm interesting trips Ive been on ......EVER !!

    I laughed until my tummy hurt......there were so many moments that will be etched in my memory forever

    The fact we managed to get to see a few bikes at the NEC between the journey there and back is just a bonus hehehe.

    On one train we were packed in so closely we were all sharing secrets and bonding hehehe and everyone was laughing....now that is what you call fun hehehe ;D ;D ;D

    Thank you to my travelling companions for making the day so much fun......imagine if we'd gone by car......think what we would have missed hehehe ;D ;D ;D

    Now, who's idea was it ??? hehe :P :P :P :P

    Don't forget the delay on the way there! We were sat on a train or about 45 minutes with no driver because his train to temple meads was delayed/diverted because of the land slide and when he finally got there he legally had to have a break! Steve the train manager kept us upto date though!
    When we did get going we learnt about a lorry driver who made £200 on a job but then broke his lorry and it was costing £15,000 for a new engine but the lorry wasn't even worth £20,000! Then we had a guy take a call on speaker phone as was talking about ather large budgets and what things were being spent on!certainly not stuff he should have been talking about on speakerphone on a train lol! :-?
