I found this website for the Port of Charleston -- I see Patriot and Tasco scheduled to come in, but no Carribean Highway. hmmm

http://www.scspa.com/vessel_schedule.asp

Oh, and about the tattoos...just make sure they're fantastic pieces of art, not back room scribblings!

The Carribean Highway is a K-Line ship, I'll check. All I found is her leaves Southampton May 4th / Arrives May 15th "give or take" in Charleston

Oh, I'm not doubting you...I just want it to show up on Port's website! I don't know if I can handle my baby coming in on a K-line, being all out of the loop and unable to track him. And of course I called my MA and he's out of the office today...the nerve! Who is he to take a Friday off! Trying to decide if I should wait til tomorrow to call or call today and bug someone else.

MINI Trekkie, you need to come join us at the Flying Saucer and find out how bad Coors is. MetroplexMINI Happy Hour North is there at 6:00 on Tuesdays. Come on over and we'll teach you about good beer.

What Nerve! call him on his cell phone. Come to think of it. It's been 12 hours since I got a report from my MA. Gonna call him right now. WAIT - He went on vacation too. But he left Kyrie in charge. (After I'm done bugging Ky, Jorge is never gonna get coverage).

That sounds like a good idea, but I'm more of a "Jack Daniels" person then a beer drinker. I'll try and make it on Tuesdays.

Is it done yet?

Not according to ASK MINI. I just called and the automated response system said my MINI is in the paint shop due to be completed today. UMM, there's only 3.5 hours of today left people!

Hurry Hurry Hurry! All my MINI friends are living it up at the pub and I don't want to be the last sober one in!

ASKMINI might be delayed. When I called yesterday afternoon, I spoke to a live person and was told that my clubman was still in the body shop. When I was home at about 9 pm, I called the automated and was told that he/she is in the paint shop. I called the automated at 7 this morning and was told that my clubman is complete and waiting to be released to carrier. The process from Paint to Finish appears to be quick. We'll save a space for yah.

I was getting the exact same message as you jearl. I called and spoke with Jeremy at ASK-MINI, he said my MINI had completed and was handed over to the port of exit!!! You should call and speak to a person, maybe we went over at the same time...(last in, first out)

Scrolling through the 'Production Week 17 Support Group', it's easy to notice how impatient we are since almost all of us are currently online!

I hope I get on that boat and don't have to just sit there by myself!

Cool Idea. I grew up in Houston. Pasadena actually. We can bring the ship right up the ship channel to the auto depot and get off there. Right under the loop 610 bridge.

OMMMM...OMMMM (thinking telepathic thoughts to Bimini) (Incite Mutiny.... come to Houston.... ) OMMMM.... OMMMMM.....
