I called Nortown today - they told me the authorization to proceed had been 
received from Brighouse on Feb 26, and it was done Mar5, shipped Mar6. I then 
called my dealer (Broad Street Cameras) and told him this. He was going to call 
Brighouse and ask them to ship it overnight to Victoria, since they should have 
received it by now, even if it shipped ground from Nortown.

I've just left a message with Broad Street, I'd like to check that it *will* be 
shipped from Brighouse today, so I can pick it up this weekend.
