    Oh noooo! :(

    I've read this and now I want it, too.

    I got loads of books :(

    Wonder if I can make up a good enough excuse?

    So I am heating the oven a little (with the leather in it) and then turning off and leaving the leather to cook in the residual heat. And so on, until it hopefully dries out enough at some stage. It smells absolutely amazing though.
    Do you have an airing cupboard? That might be warm enough to dry the leather.

    Yes we do, but it's full of towels and stuff (and loo rolls and the occasional demi john of wine LOL). Actually I've turned the dial down to 0 and it seems to be ticking over ok. Just need to convince DH that we ARE going to leave it on overnight. I can see this not being very money-saving!

    lol, sounds like my airing cupboard, except ours has a router, network switches and hub and a cat carrying box along with all the linen!

    Well, I couldn't wait and went to Borders tonight to get a copy! I've only had a quick flick through it so far, but it looks like a nice book.
