Hate that stuff….horrible memories from when I was a kid running around the woods in the summer and ending up with it covering my legs.

Just when I thought the poison ivy and poison sumac where bad enough
Last night, had the most mind numbing migraine I've ever had. Had to literally crawl on my hands and knees to the kitchen to down a fistful of advil.
Took the day off from work, only to be woken up by my deputy director asking me to put out a fire
Thought it was kind of hot in the house, found out the capacitor to my central air system was shot, no AC all day
Everything is good now, head back on my shoulders, fire put out, and AC fixed, but it feels like today was an episode of "24"
"… and this is the longest day of my life..."

Just Spent 45 Minutes doing a post in the Fishing thread. Maybe 50+ photos and descriptions. They were all deleted. FUCK! I will come back to that later….

I know too damn good what you're talking about mate…these moments suck big time, they piss you off and you really think if you should do it all over again or just leave it and come back another day!
I'd love to see'em though...so have a beer or two before the next try

its easy to find out what people want just put up a survey, i mean that's what this forum is right?
Surveys are notoriously unreliable. Lots of people will say, "yeah, I'll buy that", then when the product hits Gosport, they all disappear. Whether that's because they change their minds, because their eyes are bigger than their wallet, or something else, who knows?
Here is the perfect example.
For sometime I have been trying to work out how to make enough lof the larger (XXL and XXXL) sizes for the "larger"customers, I hate the fact that I don't make enough and end up disappointing people. So I created a mailing list for "large" people. A couple of months ago, I sent out a mail to them asking for them to indicate if they would be interested in getting either the upcoming white and/or green western shirts in an XXL and XXXL. I got 20 "yeses", so I made the shirts.
Early this week I emailed them and told them that the shirts were nearly ready and were they still interested? Only 2 people bothered to respond and they both said no.
Not sure why I bothered.

That sucks.
G, just keep doing what you do with current magic formulae. Some of us might be disappointed sometimes, but mostly it all works out so everyone gets most of what they want.
Don't fix what isn't broken, and a few disappointments now and then does not equal broken.
Spoken as a "larger" customer too

how does the above reference the rest of items produced for the standard size set (s-xl)? are less items produced since more plus sized items were made or was just more fabric developed to meet the anticipated demand?
