Mission Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 Just had a telephone call from one of my uk wholesalers informing me that we won't get our delivery tomorrow as the "boat has had a bit of a bump and is in for repair". Anyone confirm / deny or know any more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempus Fugit Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 electrical problem I think the tuesday night sailing is the light sailing anyway so shouldn't affect many passengers, just freight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Tatlock Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 electrical problem Watt? This will only contribute to their current problems and no doubt stop many people getting ohm on time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempus Fugit Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 wonder if that's why they had a tug on hand on saturday at Birkenhead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavros Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 It could've been far worse, the 03 December hasn't been a particularly good day for the Steam Packet to sail to Liverpool. Specifically not 98 years ago anyway! Ellan Vannin Stav. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Smelly Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 Isnt it funny how this seems to be a monthly if not weekly thing ? Time for an open market i say, if the ben ever went down with a serious problem what would happen ? Its like having a lighthouse with no spare bulbs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mission Posted December 3, 2007 Author Share Posted December 3, 2007 Hmm, that report says tomorrow nights sailings so why is there no boat tomorrow morning? I wonder if our supplier has been given duff information? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emma Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 I can see the old favourite comment becoming more of a myth "there's a boat in the morning" (or not!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheeky boy Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 The Ben arrived on schedule this evening and appears to have left again Given the annual yuletide mayhem at Tesco & M&S there would probably be a riot if the boat broke down just before Xmas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
