Yep! I'll be stamping at the Jumble on saturday, I'll be there until 11 from whatever time it starts. i.e. an hour after Justin's got there and nabbed anything decent.
Well, it's worth using the tension bolt - very gently on a an old one, and be sure it's not damp when you do this. If there's any tearing around the rivets then maybe not. Feed very minimally, and reapply from time to time until it stops feeling dried out, rather than putting loads on at once. If it's really uncomfortably saggy, tieing it under with lacing is a good idea. If it rides fine, don't fix it. Unless that ;] means you're kidding about your leathery turkeyneck, in which case HAH!
