looking for a model ship

[souroull]

my better half is working for a ship management company and she's been telling me about how nice their model ships are for weeks now.

well, her birthday is coming up fast and i thought i'd get her a modern high detail commercial cargo ship model

does anyone have a clue as to where i can find something like this? a short search in google only yielded centuries old warship models. i'm looking for a present day cargo/container or tanker ships.

thanks

I dont but i know a few divorce lawyers

Wouldnt this be the same as getting her a new hover or iron?

Are you serious!

Well if you are then you could take a look here Huge Selection of Discounted Plastic Models, Balsa Airplane Model kits, Modeling Tools & Paint, Puzzles, Toys and Games

You sure she wouldn't prefer a new iron?

Whats wrong with a model ship for a girl?Not everyone prefer diamond,gold,a cruise or perhaps designe clothes[if i was you i take o board the suggestion of a lawier]The only thing think of your girfriend close in in own room for days building this ship[can take up mounth].So days of freedoms or lonlyness?

Understanding women Rule 1 of 10000000000:

A woman saying she likes something does not necessarily mean she wants one, it simply means she likes it. And if you buy her one your in the doghouse becuase your were not being thoughtful you was being lazy for not listening to the real truth (which you wont know anyway)

If she works in the environment i doubt she would want her free time filled with building a copy to look nothing like the ones at work, which inturn will make her feel incompetent which will then all be your fault.

Chocolates always win, unless shes a bloater then she will think you dont understand shes trying to lose weight and you simply just dont care lol

Why not try to combine the traditional with the untraditional.

Eg name a rose for her, if she's called Torrey Canyon you're on a winner...

good one, only its a bit on the expensive side, plus its in the US and shipping would be a nightmare, not to mention customs

anything in continental europe?

At (I suspect) the very expensive end there's model container vessels, scale model, marine model container vessels At the budget end (again a guess) there's 4250tue Container Ship,China 4250tue Container Ship Products,4250tue Container Ship manufacturer If they're like most Chinese businesses they'll be happy to point you to a retailer or sell direct with a helpful Customs valuation. If you're willing to make it yourself (or pay someone) there's Graupner model kits http://www.cornwallmodelboats.co.uk/..._rc_boats.html If you search ebay with the word supertanker you'll find a nice one in Germany for 88p (at the moment)
