Our sea shipment could be with us by the end of the week!!
We weren't expecting it until first or so week in November but it turns out that it reached Colombo in Sri Lanka last week and has been re-loaded and, all being well the ship docks in Chennai tomorrow. Originally it was going via Singapore and then to here but I'm not complaining! DH has had a good go at talking round the bureaucracy that rules the Port Authorities of Chennai and if we're canny we may be able to go and do all the necessaries and have some home comforts by the weekend! OK so now I'll just take a reality check and admit to myself that 1) We're in lovely India. 2) Things never go according to plan. 3) There will be a 'Jobsworth' or three to contend with. 4) Indian Customs & Excise are allegedly b*****s for red tape and extremely thorough - hmmm could take time.
Whatever happens sooner rather than later will be a REAL BONUS!
