Hopefully the seat heating element still work. Don't want [mention]EODguy [/mention]to freeze when driving the Zamboni.

(I was going to just say winter nights when i remembered Zamboni issue).

It must get down to 30c on winter nights out there might need that seat heat!

Don't worry the friction of the sand blowing across me will keep me warm...

Can't be coming from Amazon if you are confident of the exact date!

(So many times this year "we're sorry your item is running late")

I've had several such notices from Amazon, over the years, but I rank them as my preferred delivery service, followed by UPS, USPS, and lastly FedEx (I ran shipping receiving for several years before I retired, and had more problems with FedEx than anything else...same goes for home delivery, but they've gotten a bit better in recent years).

Maybe EODguy uses a "diplomatic pouch" for his shipping?

Diplo pouch... I wish, that pouch would be sloshing and smell like bacon!!

Eat lots of bacon while you are state side! Can't wait to see what's in the box! Maybe an Army camo cap?

Thanks EODguy! Goodies have been unpacked! You must have emptied out the duty free shop.
I'll have to use a translation app to determine what's in each package.

Super thanks for the fridge magnet and military coin! I'll add the coin to my collection. The military coin will go next to my Signal Command coins.
