that reminds me - I need to have another look for some leather to cover my old flite saddle!

bought some spray glue and clamps already (from poundworld) been going round charity shops with mrs griff as 'cover' looking for donor handbags or skirts etc
so far they've all been made of 'pleather' or have got seams going across  ::)

wonder if she would notice if I cut a section out of back of sofa....?

who knows - might even decide to abandon the elina-on-the-MT idea altogether  :D
