That's a relief!

You would have been in real trouble if it was on its way to Hamburg

In an attempt to forget build dates, boat schedules and factory closedowns i attempted the Telegraph crossword today - clue - Abominable Snowman - yes - Yeti..........urgh!

In an attempt to forget build dates, boat schedules and factory closedowns i attempted the Telegraph crossword today - clue - Abominable Snowman - yes - Yeti..........urgh!

Talking of factory closedowns, I'm pretty sure it happens this month (July), but nowhere can I find the actual dates or whether the factory is closed for 2 or 3 weeks. Reason I ask is that I've been given a build week of week 30 (last week of July) for my Scout. Anyone know the actual dates/duration?

[lee67]

its from monday 5th for 3 weeks simon...so last build days are today and tomoz sunday, if they work weekends... ..hence why i hope mine is built this week as promised

Thank you. I've hunted high and low for that information without success until now. Someone on here mentioned a week or so ago that the factory closure was being reduced to 2 weeks to help keep up with demand. Don't know if there's any truth in that?

de boat is back on its way to emden :p

........having discharged my SM at Sheerness. Dealer just confirmed it is in the country.Well done K Line Europe. Now just a matter of how long they take to get it to Sussex. Am allowed to drive again from Wednesday after knee op which perfect timing. Am sure something will go awry! It is all going too well!!

Good weekend

TTFN

[lee67]

Sorry old chap. Did not mean to rub it in. Hopefully your Yeti is not far behind. What are the chances of two guys having had their 2nd knee op, just allowed to drive again, watching the ships sail from Emden to Sheerness having ordered a Yeti. Weird. Perhaps we should start a sep thread about knees! No, will not go there. Hope yours were a success. Must say mine seem to have worked very well so far - thank goodness.

Cheers
