Said in my best Alexander Graham Bell voice:
'I am speaking to you through the miracle of my new flat screen, infra-red keyboard & mouse computer thingy'.

Evenin' all.
Coo, I think I've sussed it! All by myself! New system arrived in lots of big boxes this morning so I've been busy plugging things in & wondering what they all do.
The man from Dell he say Yes. Rather suprisingly, it all seems to be working. I am a techy god.

Right. What was the question? Oh yeah, merchandise. O.K, latest update. I deliver to the printer so saw him this morning. He's all set to print the sample for the tan T shirt with black outline print. He's also O.K with embroidering the black work shirt. Only hold up now is the black T shirt with 3 colour, (red/cream/black outline), print. He's been dragging his feet a bit & filling outstanding orders -he does a lot of stuff for military units abroad. Also imported some software from the States that seperates out the colours & produces a print screen for each one. Anyway, he's gonna knock out two of the samples on Monday & sort the 3 colour one soon. As soon as I've got all 3 & taken some photos of them, I'll ask Yodie to produce a "Merchandise" page & we'll be underway. Yodie's getting really busy with other projects now so I'll have to ask him very nicely. I don't want to take cash off people until I know we're ready to go. You still want stuff?
I'll need some idea of how many of each design & what sizes to order soon.
O.K?

No problem. Any idea what size?
I'm trying to get some idea of numbers & most requested sizes. If I can find any spare cash I'll try & keep a few in stock. Yodie says large & extra large seem to sell best with his Bikerlifestyle shirts. The printer says that once he's got everything on file it'll be easy to run off a few as & when we need 'em though.
We did a sample of the tan T & the embroidered shirt a while ago but they weren't quite right. Had to alter the pupils of the monkey's eyes a little on the T & the embroidery colours were wrong on the front patch of the shirt, but I guess that's what samples are for eh? May be able to do a seperate sew-on embroidered oval patch as well if there's enough demand.

Okey doke.
My brother belongs to the Wild Bunch drag racing team forum, (see links page for their site address). Says he'll post a link to here once we've sorted a merchandise page, so may be able to flog a few to the race/custom guys. How cool would that be, to go to a race meet & see guys in the pits wearing our shirts! Would be nice to get some hotrodders on this forum as well, just to add some variety to the topics.

Picked up two new samples from the printer this morning. STILL waiting for the three colour/black T shirt one. As soon as that materialises I'll take some piccies & beg Yodie to knock up a Merchandise page.
Full colour, (red/cream,brown), oval embroidered patches also available. 3 quid each.

hmm red design on red T sirt - will that work?

You're not paying attention!
Two choices of T shirts. Black with the full colour design on, (red oval, cream border & lettering & brown monkey), or the tan shirt shown here with a black outline design on. We spoke by text earlier about you supplying one of your own shop's plain red girl's cut T shirts. You could have the black outline print on that. The printer said once the machine's set up to print the black design he could do it on any colour shirt, assuming he's got them in stock. Tan is his most commonly used colour because he does a lot of work for military units serving abroad, & I happen to think it looks good with our design!
I suppose you could try the 3 colour design on a red shirt but the cream border & lettering might show as pink.
