As the Edwin Hawkins Singers once said, "Oh happy day." They did not go on to say "We have finally found a really good supplier of blank t-shirts", more's the pity. We won't hold it against them, though. It might have lent a somewhat surreal air to their hit gospel song, which, if we're honest, probably wasn't what they were after.

We thought howies blanks were going to be far too expensive for a teeny company like us. Not so. As their ultra-helpful sales fella Adrian says, "We're very keen for people to use organic blanks, so we try to make it easy for them to do it." Amen, brother, as Edwin and his mates would probably have put it.

Go see the howies site for yourself, find out why we like doing business with them, and see how flippin' great our t-shirts are going to be as a result. Then order their wondrous catalogue and spend the next few months finding little nuggetty bits of fun and wisdom in it that you hadn't seen the first time. Tell 'em we sent you.

So the t-shirts will be ready soon. If you want to be the first to know when they finally emerge into the light, send us an email and we'll put you on our mailing list.

Edwin's favourite pie? A righteous mince and onion, we reckon.
