just been speaking to the guys at hughie willett and they seemed interested in becoming an Aspen stockist.
i mentioned that you recommended them and i think that it would be really good if you made them aware that you were keen purchase the product from them. Many shops (and users) are skeptical about Aspen at first untill they have tried it so i think that it would be re-assuring for them to know that there is real interest from a professional user like yourself.
