Sweet home Southampton!

Thats it, we're home :-(
But we had an interesting reception at the airport. Moo had been promising to come and pick us up, but he got called to Germany with his work, so instead he managed to arrange for about half of Shire Land Rover Club to come and meet us... at 7:30am on Saturday morning... at Heathrow! You're all mad!
But thanks guys, it really made a fantastic ending to a fantastic trip!

More news on the shipping. I got the full story from Kingstown about the delayed shipping and now we don't mind it taking a long time. The problem is that the warehouse closes over the Christmas period and they don't want to risk having any containers turn up during that period. If they do then there is an £80/day charge! Ok... we'll wait till after Christmas then!

Good to hear you had a great rest of the trip, but sorry to hear that Charlie won't be there for Christmas.
FYI, there is an excellent trail in the Needles District to within 1/2 mile of the Colorado & Green River's confluence, plus you also go by Newspaper Rock. Just info for next time. ;-)
