Long, long, long shot, but...

Thanks. :) (Boyfriend has told me not to "get into trouble" looking for it.) Those bikers I have contacted via forums, repair shops and the like have all been very sympathetic and helpful (as I expected they would be!), so here's hoping...

Cheers, mate! :) Have spent today covering a large amount of the local area, peering under a lot of motorbikes' raincovers to check the reg. plates, and getting the word out to anyone I can think of who might come across it. Tomorrow, on the advice of two different bikers, I shall be tramping up and down a few miles of wilderness-bordered footpath in the middle of the city, as apparently that's here the joyriders take nicked bikes. And burn them afterwards [just great].
I am, however, very heartened to hear about your mate's joyous reunion! :D I bet he was thrilled to bits.
I am also feeling rather guilty aboutit, as not only did I askthe boyfriend to visit on Friday instead of the usual Thursday (which meant, as he works the late shift Fridays, he used the bike instead of the bus), but also because we tried to manoeuvre it into the tiny little walled yard at the front of the house, but he gave up - I should have MADE him persist, as that's right by my bedroom window, an we'd have heard anyone trying to shift it. Specially as he didn't chain it, and just put the steering lock mechanism on (I know, I know...).
Arghbollocks. DON'T MAKE ME USE THE CHARLEVILLE ON YOU, THIEF.

Yes the fellow as thrilled beyond bits when the po-po told him, "'allo we've got your ride then." He mailed it out to the entire department list. Ironically, Mr. Bones had a bike just like it years ago, one of those fancy Hondas. I shall never forgive Mr. Bones for getting rid of his 1960s Triumph. *grumbles* He won't buy another bike now, says it too dangerous these days (?). He seems to have replaced the bikes with fast motor cars though, so no complaints.
Don't let the guilt consume you. In the end it was a MUTUAL decision reached by you both to moor it where it was last seen so its not all your fault.
I never thought Leicester had crimmys as such...to take a bike. Come to think of it, I bet your thief is a young adult, spotty looking, male out for fits and giggles. Maybe casually walking by all the delinquent hangouts during THE DAY and around back of them, might turn it up. I dunno. However, don't do anything irrational.
Now you need to get some resty. I see Murray in Watson is being quite difficult to manage. Yes you did read that correctly. Health first, fun later. Good lord, that sounds like an NHS add. *hugs*
