I had a "Splendid" Day a the Rally, which started off on the Roundabout with Aureolin at 10:30am, I then had a slow walk up towards the GNE Buses, Stopping at the Model Stalls along the way, where I bought 2 MCW Metrobuses for £16 from Daves Diecast, I then continued on my Venture up the top, where I bumped into Anthony Armitage and Bazza, along with Gary Devlin.

I then headed back down the other side where I stopped at the Henry Cooper Coach "I think it was" where the Owner was selling a load of Go North East Models along with ones he had Repainted himself, I was rather impressed by the Route 19 Renown he did, which he was selling for £10 (Bazza ended up Buying it), whereas I on the other hand opted to Buy the Northern Metrobus and Wright Solar Fusion in it's original GNE Colours for £5 each, Dare say I got the better Deal despite regretting not buying the Route 19 Renown as it was simply superb as were the other Repaints, which I took a few photos of also.

After that I continued down towards the Shuttle Bus Stop, where I got on the Sunderland Corporation Bus to Tanfield Railway, which was a Really Nice Journey, this meant I missed the Ian Hignett Memorial, as when I came back I went to get something eat, and I didn't return until just after 1. I again walked up and back down before getting on 3833 and going round Dunston and Riverside with Ray Parnaby and I briefly seen Dan before I got on one of the other Shuttle Services, after that I decided head home.

Overall I had a Great Day I had a great day until I got back to Washington, where I ended up helping my Mother with the Shopping, only for me to leave bag on the 50, So I rang Customer Service to inform them and they got in touch with the Driver, who said he'd leave the Bag on the Bus so I could pick it up at Lambton Centre on the Return Journey, So I go up the Centre to wait for the 50, and what happens, you guessed it, The Driver took the Bag back to the Depot, This lead to me Biking it to Chester to get the Bag of Shopping, to which I was informed that it wasn't in the Depot, it was in fact in the Drivers Office on Chester Front Street above the Travel Office, You talk about bad Customer Service, this sums it up for me.

But nevertheless I am now going to sit and my SFC Boneless Chicken Box and Drink my Bottle Lucozade which I left on the Bus, and then Crack on with Uploading my Photos from Today before watch Match of the Day 2 followed by WWE Extreme Rules, quite looking forward to the WeeLC Match between Hornswoggle and El Torito, should be the Show Stealing Performance of the Night.
