Talking Our stuff is here timeframe

Just had a phone call and our stuff is ready for collection.
Our time frame goes like this:

31/08 Container loaded
Not sure when it left the UK
21/11 Ship arrived at Brisbane Port
27/11 Container unloaded in to warehouse
01/11 Customs clearance and aqis inspection
03/11 All finished and ready for us

As we have self shipped it is up to us to collect our stuff giving 24 hours notice. We can't get to Brissie tomorrow and the warehouses close for the weekend so we're picking it up on Monday.

Well worth spending a bit of money on Jeyes fluid and spending time cleaning as we have no customs or quarantine fees to pay!

Now it's just a case of collecting and unloading in to the bro in laws spare rooms until we get us a house.

Can't wait to get my mits on all my stuff, it's going to feel just like Christmas. Then we'll have to do it all again when we move.

Just realised I've messed up the date's, how could my stuff arrive on 21st Nov when we're only on the 3rd

It should go like this:

31/08 Container loaded
Not sure when it left the UK
21/10 Ship arrived at Brisbane Port
27/10 Container unloaded in to warehouse
01/11 Customs clearance and aqis inspection
03/11 All finished and ready for us
