Replying to Patreon Messages

Hello all, it's super sad that I have to do this and that Patreon still hasn't corrected this problem, but please bear in mind that if you reply to a Patreon message through email, that ends up in Cyber no-space! I'm mentioning this again now as there was a lot of interaction for the TM Guidebook...

Hello all!

The word-graphic t-shirts are being phased out as I really need to lighten my load as long as LT has no fixed space, and especially now that I'm pushing for this transition to an LT camper van! So no more print runs for t-shirts I'm afraid (although the word-graphic bags will continue!)...
