The ominous task fell on Debbie's shoulders as I had to find my suit and tie and return to the office for my first day back on the job!
According to Debbie, the process was very easy thanks to the outstanding paperwork JAS (SA & UK Shipping agents) had presented. Once the driver and flatbed truck had arrived the container was retrieved using a huge twin-loading container crane. Debbie was telling me that in a corner of the docks are stacked huge amounts of crashed containers. Its a good thing the crane did not drop our container!

Luckily for Debbie the flatbed truck driver was willing to connect the battery and get Maggie started saving her from getting herself dusty and having to reconnect the batteries. Debbie reckoned it only took a few turns of the starter motor to fire her up. Not bad after chilling at sea for three weeks and arriving back in 6Deg C weather!!
