We&#8217;ve never had one returned, so take care of them and they&#8217;ll last well &#8211;\u00a0abuse them and they&#8217;ll get a bit sad.<\/p>\n<p>And do we use that massive\u00a0heat press for alternative activities? Contrary to popular opinion, never in 25 years to resuscitate a dead Ginster&#8217;s pasty, that is nonsense, but\u00a0to tidy up a wayward trouser?
