    Sorry to hear that, postman. I queued for one of the yellow shirts with black text only to discover they'd sold out of small. They seemed to underestimate the number of people who'd need that size!

    If anyone knows where TdF kit can (still) be bought/exchanged in UK, I'd be interested too.

    I am still trying. The French company have denied having a stand in the area i mentioned.Iwill not give up.Watch this space as thy say.Iwill pass any contacts on to you.Other than the shirt fiasco .The whole weekend was brilliant.

    Wasn't it just - the best weekend of watching any sporting event I've ever been to!

    Thanks for the word to the wise - let's hope for a result! :)

    I think you can still buy from their website. I was thinking about getting one of the white tour jerseys but havenn't decided yet.

    ejls2 - you mean the offical TdF site at madeinsport.com, yes? From what I can see, their sizes for both the "normal" logo yellow-with-black and black-with-yellow t-shirts start at Medium.

    Oh well - looks like I'll have to wait until next year!

    Sorry beanzontoast. I think they had them in a few days ago but I didn't check before I posted. I hope you manage to find one. Some might turn up on e-bay?

    Ed - no worries. Just tried ringing them in France to check but though their site says they are open Saturdays, the French phone announcement doesn't tally with this in reality!

    Mais non, Beanz, non! :cry:

    :wink:

    As someone who's lived in France before, that doesn't surprise me!

    On the other hand, maybe being Bastille Day, they're having the day off!?
