:eyepop: don't say that!!!!

someone at work joked last week about wanting the ship to sink with my roc on it (jelousy ehehe) but I didn't think it could actually happen??!

omg, that coupled with the whole RNS310-instead-of-RCD510 issue is really making me worried now :)

I've had loads of people making BMW gags at me, as they know how long i've been waiting for my car. I literally have everything crossed at the mo.

So has anyone with their comission number found out if boats have actually left the port. Mine was a build week 44 so has been there for some time, knowing my luck id didn't it'll end up on a boat after some week 45 & 46 builds.

Apparently it still says "on ship", but was told that'll be out of date as it's a day behind?

I'm just waiting for my status to say "bottom of the ocean" :(

I'm wondering if the boat has gone via somalia, as today the status is still 'on ship' for mine.

anyone else and any updates more 'wooooooooooooooo' worthy?

If you can find out the ships name have a look on this site and you could track the ship all the way to Sheerness (but if you dont know ships name it will be a waste of time)

My build is officially wk 47 but updated last week to Checkpoint 5 ie mid build but as of today no change in production- so mine (wifes) may or may not be on the said ship>

I was a scheduled week 46, but I think I was a week 45 build.

The question is... will it have the week 45 changes??? :?
