Last night a tailor saved my life, from a broken heart. Well, that is if by 'saved my life', you mean 'saved me lots of hassle' and by 'a broken heart', you mean 'my girlfriend'.
I had two pairs of trousers with broken zips. I had been meaning to get them fixed for a few weeks but hadn't had the opportunity. My lady was getting impatient - apparently there is a limited amount of time that she's willing to be seen with me sporting a pair of Decathlon walking trousers (but they're timeless classics!) that are slightly too short for me.
Cue a visit to Smart City Tailors by me, less than two hours before their closing time. Could they help? Just one pair of trousers with a new zip would help. Rubbish sir, we'll fix both pairs. And we won't charge you extra however much you protest. Just pop back later before we close.
I did, and you know the rest: last night a tailor saved my life from a broken heart. I believe they offer other services too. read more
