Steph and I won't get there until early Sat. morning, (Steph is working Friday) though we are marshalling this year, so we don't have to worry about the stress of preparation and the cost of damage .Britswed wrote:So what day is everyone arriving ???
On a side note, I may be able to pick things up Friday and bring them up for people if required......... you know all those little things you forget or go wrong.
Catch every one there.

Not looking good for the UK vehicles at the moment, been told this morning they may not arrive in Sydney until 15th May. Really frustrating after sending them a week earlier than last time it's taken them 3 weeks longer to get them there.
We're all hoping it's just a miscommunication, every time we talk to the shipper about anything they move the ETA back a few more days.
