Port Hueneme here she comes!

For the ignorant Canadian who doesn't get access to this type of info, what does "Booked Southampton 04/04/2008" mean? Is there any way to find out where each ship stops?

Yeah, go here and click on Schedules under the Customer Centre heading. Do a search by ports (Southampton, UK to wherever your delivery port is) and a listing will come up. Click on the voyage number to see the itinerary for that ship.

I am confused, I found out on June 3rd Nugget was born, and haven't heard anything since that. I tried tracking it on whatever boat and "no information available". MINIUSA still says in production.
Ok DChaps, where is Altoid, Nugget is probably parting with him and the others. Like i said before she is going to be a handful...

As far as I am aware Altoid is getting his finishing touches today, then he is off down to the docks to rendezvous with Nugget. I am hoping they don't plan on skipping town and eloping.

Nugget is a good girl - just likes to party and loves to cruise - so I'm sure they will all make it on the boat together, i can see it though, they will be running all over the place as soon as no one is looking.

lol I did that the other day entering only the last 5 digits on my VIN (like it asks) and it pulled up a car from 2007 that was already delivered.....I must have been on the wrong site. Thanks!

Anthropomorphism is the attribution of uniquely human characteristics to non-human creatures and beings, natural and supernatural phenomena, material states and objects or abstract concepts. Subjects for anthropomorphism commonly include animals depicted as creatures with human motivation able to reason and converse, forces of nature such as winds or the sun, components in games, unseen or unknown sources of chance, etc. Almost anything can be subject to anthropomorphism. The term derives from a combination of Greek ἄνθρωπος (anthrōpos), human and μορφή (morphē), shape or form.
