    Nick, I hope you don't mind me asking this and I know from experience that Harris Tweed has a bit of a job in being too precise on the cloth weight. With that said, how are you going to sell and compartmentalise the weight of cloth? Heavy? Medium? Light? Roughly and that is probably the fairest way of saying it, how heavy is heavy, for example? Is there a choice of tartan cloth weights? As you well know, for me on the wild and windy West coast of Scotland might prefer a real heavy weight cloth, whilst some one from Australia may well need some thing much lighter? If it is too soon to answer these questions I quite understand, but enquiring minds are beginning to wonder.

    If I may say so, I think this is a wonderful idea and I hope the weavers grasp this opportunity with both hands.
