 ## Task
 
-We are selling t-shirts. Write a form to collect the following data:
+We are selling T-shirts. Write a form to collect the following data:
 
 Our customers already have accounts, so we know their addresses and charging details already. We don't need to collect that data. We want to confirm they are the right person, then get them to choose a colour and size.
 
 Writing that out as a series of questions to ask yourself:
 
-1. What is the customer's name? I must collect this data, and validate it. But what is a valid name? I must decide something.
-2. What is the customer's email? I must make sure the email is valid. Email addresses have a consistent pattern.
-3. What colour should this t-shirt be? I must give 3 options. How will I make sure they don't pick other colours?
-4. What size does the customer want? I must give the following 6 options: XS, S, M, L, XL, XXL
+1. What is the customer's name? I must collect this data and ensure it contains at least two non-space characters.
+2. What is the customer's email? I must make sure the email is valid. Email addresses follow a consistent pattern.
+3. What colour should this T-shirt be? I must provide 3 options. How will I ensure they do not choose other colours?
+4. What size does the customer want? I must provide the following 6 options: XS, S, M, L, XL, XXL
 
 All fields are required.
 Do not write a form action for this project.
 
-## Developers must test their work.
+> [!TIP]
+> To check whether the customer's name contains at least two non-space characters you may need to use a **regular expression** (or **regex** for short), which is a tool used to match patterns in text. If you wish to learn more about regular expressions there are plenty of resources on the web including the [official MDN documentation](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Regular_expressions), but for this task you can use this regex that we have pre-written for you: `.*\S.*\S.*`. 
+>
+> Now you have the regular expression, it's up to you to figure out how to use it in the context of an HTML form!
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
