    Elegant Scotland gone

    Just went to have a look at this site to check out their PV tartans and get a message saying 'Provider has closed this site'.

    www.elegantscotland.com

    They were doing double width 13oz for £15 a metre, and my wife has just asked me to make a kilt for our eldest.
    Will have to look elsewhere to try and get a good deal on fabric now.

    That would be a shame, but the message implies the ISP closed the site, not necessarily Elegant Scotland - maybe they are changing ISPs or domain names or just forgot to pay the bill!

    Did you try contacting them direct? Phone 01862 811422 or email elegantscotland@mail.com

    With a generic email address, sounds like a small company too busy to be worrying about a full website (been there, done that!). Or there is a twitter (Ugh!) address.
    Regards, Sav.

    Couldn't get to the contact details and didn't think about googling them...

    Yep, that kind of message is usually an indicator that somebody forgot to pay the hosting bill! Definitely worth trying to get in touch with them through some other means. If that doesn't work out, you might also contact Marton Mills; they don't have an online store but you can email them to request a retail price sheet, and order by phone.
