K&c Uk Crimean Campaign (1 Viewer)

[Tony Neville]

Guys

Unlike 1854, instead of heading out of Portsmouth and many other south coast harbours from Britain, down the Atlantic coast of France and round the point of Spain up to the resting point in Malta.

The 1st Wave of our Crimean has left Hong Kong and as we speak is coming out through Subic Bay. Now normally a shipment takes three days from K&C HK. But this one is weighing in at 1400KG!!!! so being used the global logistics and the global trend of most shipping staff......'jjjjjjjjeeeeeze they want that to get on here.......HAH!' we are allowing it to get here by the end of the week. 130 boxs of Crimean horses etc............unlike the real campaign we will not have to kill and eat the horses due to the journey and i will personnaly check every soldier to ensure he does not have any undesirables that could weaken them before battle.

So all pre orders will be going out the end of this week to the begining of next week.

I cannot wait

How is that Tunnel going towards the K&C UK warehouse?

 

[Rob]

Well mate my biggest problem is the same one Bronson and Attenborough had in the great escape.Shoring up and disposing of the spoil.Still i'm under the warehouse now,so close i can hear the rustle of chocolate wrappers above me!.I now have to wait until nightfall before breaking in.Anything you want me to grab for you?.Just hoping i don't come up in the outside loo!!!

Rob

 

[Capitolron]

I will take one of everything - please

 

[Rob]

...I'd better widen the tunnel!!.If Tony and Mike just gave me a full time job they'd know where i am all the time,save them a fortune on security!!

Rob

 

[Capitolron]
