Well after almost 6 years, I'm back with a new post.
On Saturday 20 April I joined my fellow members
of the Wolfsburg Bus Crew (WBC) for their annual
Spring meet held at Wendover Woods. It's not the first
show of the year, as a few of the crew have already
attended a couple of shows. This was just a 'WBC'
member only event, where you could catch up
with old mates that you haven't seen over the long
cold winter. It's also a good chance to make new
friends, and not to mention give your bus a shake
down run ready for the summer season.
We arranged to meet a a local supermarket and cruise
up to Wendover Woods in convoy, (easier said than done!)
a journey of around 7 miles.

to the left of this page. Simply click on an arrow for a
particular year, then click an arrow for a particular
month, this will then give you a drop down menu for all
the blog entries for that month.
Upon leaving the superstore for the convoy, I
was fourth in line and this was my view en-route
to the woods.
There is nothing better than being in a convoy
of old buses with your mates.

As usual the Wolfsburg Bus Crew have an award
for the best bus on the day as voted for by the
other members. Everyone votes for their favourite
bus and the bus with the most votes gets the trophy.
The trophy for the Wendover Woods meets is
a hand painted saw by Stinky Pete. Check out

Finally a few photos of my bus, taken by other
WBC members. You know who you are, which
is just as well because I don't!
So that was the first blog write up for 6 years,
I'm a bit rusty but I'll soon get back in the swing
of things as I intend to try and start posting more
