We are sailing.
I assume that Banggood /Taigen Etc will be blaming the Skipper of the beached VL Container Carrier for any delays in their products reaching Europe who instead of motoring up the canal decided to go sailing
I think I am about to upset someone

Re: We are sailing.
The good news is that they have finally bullied her into the narrow channel and refloated her. The bad news is that the queue that has built up will take days to clear. We'll just have to wait for our goodies.

Yes, that's the solution! If it can loosen the pins on 1/16 RC tank tracks, it can loosen a humongous ship. But can it work as well as prunes?

Re: We are sailing.
A bit of good news. Three DIY items l ordered from Banggood early last week arrived separately yesterday and today from China via my postie. All were free post and on offer, yet they each made short work of that long journey. Are Banggood using that overland non-stop rail express facility these days? They clearly didn't travel via Suez!
