Alison,This news is very encouraging, albeit that we're still struggling for those laundry labels! <Smiles>

We have identified some stronger magnetic material following feedback that the magnetic A4 sheets we currently sell aren't great for tins. We are planning to produce PenFriend enabled labels using this material. I don't have a definitive date at the moment, but it shouldn't take us long. The other hot topic is laundry labels. We have had a couple of different samples, which have sadly both failed. There is a British Standard for washable labels and label manufacturers are telling us that although there's a standard, until now, there hasn't been a market for them. We are working with a couple of different manufacturers on samples and as soon as we have some, we'll ask for volunteers to test them. Pack C and D are both in stock and available to order. We will also be launching some PenFriend enabled children's books in a couple of weeks.
