146.3m (2 rolls) were despatched by PARCELFORCE yesterday and should arrive with you in approximately 5 working days.
The remaining balance of your order, 84m, is expected back from the Finishing mill tomorrow and should be despatched by Parcelforce next week.
Kind regards,
Roz
The Jones is in overdrive.
I am sorry everybody but my inner math geek kicked in upon seeing those numbers:
220 m of X Marks tartan ~= 660 ft;
300 ft to a football field [I know a Soccer/ ROW football field can vary in length but it is close] =2.5 football field lengths
assume a roll is ~2 yards or 6 ft wide = 12 feet of width
ERGO the Wizard could cover HALF of his local Football field with TARTAN  
OR he could let the seething rabble have their token scraps
