 Not a bad idea.

 Actually, a while back, we got a dose of ILUG tshirts, hats and fleeces
made up; nice black polo-style shirts, with a penguin, and a linux.ie logo
under the pengiun.

 Very tasteful. We could do another run. And this time, aim to make a
slight profit for the diminishing ILUG coffers. Would people be interested ?

 I just hope that I still can get the old logos...they cost 200 quid or
something to input, before a tshirt was worked on.
