Unless you were out of the country you should know that I made a second appearance on Four Live last Thursday.
If you missed it you can catch up here (available until 28th October). Unfortunately it is unavailable outside of Ireland. Sorry !!
However you can get all the tips I referred to on their site here.
Here are the main recipes I referred to:
Shoe polish
Mix a small amount of olive oil and lemon juice in an egg cup.
Use a soft cloth (old t-shirt cut up) to apply.
Rub into the leather and then use a clean cloth to buff it up.
