When I steer my sister Mary to a site such as that, she typically responds by calling me BAD SISTER (her Visa card is registered as a deadly weapon LOL).
Alan, you are a BAD MAN.
I am so looking forward to receiving that lovely heavy Maple Leaf tartan. . .

I did notice that the material was posted on the site on Friday. Having missed the last round of 16oz maple leaf, I called Gordon and dropped by today. (I live and work only a few blocks away). I did pick up enough maple leaf to make a tank. The material is beautiful. I do have a very small piece of this summers run and in this current run the colours are just a touch more muted - but just a touch. Having worked in a maple sugar bush I can say the colours feel true to life.
Well.... then I made the mistake of asking to see the Ulster - and it was love at first sight. What the heck, a few more yards of 16oz. i was suprised - on my monitor the ulster looked a bit more yellow that it did in real life.
Now here I sit trying out different pleating options.
Not to be a bad influence but this material is nice.
