John is my MA also. They are both very good at what they do. I'm going to try and get some info tomorrow, I'll let you know what I find out.

Please do! Let him know there are several of us that got to the docks on the 23rd and are wondering what's up. I think they surf NAM so they are aware of the culture and tracking that goes on here.

I know John also surfs Motoring Underground. There are some nice pics of his ride in the Garage thread.

Well during this wait, I'm trying to decide on the size of checkers for my roof.

The 9 inch:



Or the smaller check like CR&PW&JP has on his:

Good idea!
The smaller checked is sa-weet -- so is the garage. Great matted floor!
I also saw another one that is about the size of smaller check like CR&PW&JP, but is muted - I'll have to look for it and send it along to you.

Twister's cool version of checkered top

Let's see if I can paste this photo in --
I believe this is "Twister's" It is a nice variation...
But if you have the checkered mirrors -- not sure how that would look.

BTW -- It seems hard for me to believe that there is a week gap between the latest ship leaving Southhampton and the next one departing. I mean up until this point it seems to have been one ship every couple days.

Why the gap?

I think it's because they want to torment us. We already had to deal with the work stoppage (sp?). Now, they want to see us deal with a longer shipping wait.

Hello all!
I hold the same status - Awaiting Transport. ASK MINI can only tell me that I have been waiting to board a vessel since June 22 (and I thought it was since June 23). Either way - it's been awhile.

I will try to reach my MA John in Nashville later this morning to ask if he can determine where my Mini is. From the looks of things - if one of us made one of the two on K-Line last week, we all might be on it. Here's to hoping!

Cynthia

I guess I need to try to call as well. I'll come back here as soon as I know something.

I think a big thing to wait for is Cybergypsy to have her status change to En Route. Then we can start to check ours since the Emden left right before the Don Juan and the other K-Line left the following day. I think that'd be a fair indicator of if we made it or not.

A good indicator would be if our MAs would get out of those Monday morning meetings and call us back.

Has anyone tried calling K-Line or even the Port directly to find if the VIN number was loaded onto a ship?
