As long as my feet don't touch the ground and if I love the pair I will keep on wearing them (and there are even exceptions to this - so what if there's a hole in my favourite flats, I have tights on etc etc). The Village Cobbler is what you need when your black Zara peep toes are too bad for words, and you've already tried cellotaping them back together ... and you've got to get the train back to uni tomorrow. Oh, and could you just do them now? Thankyou thankyou thankyou. Obviously under normal circumstances there is a queue- a couple of days is usual. They cut keys here as well and sell all sorts of useful things like luggage etc. The only thing to defeat them was a small satchel bag that I completely murdered: my sister thought that she could salvage it (and thus take ownership of the poor thing). Alas, they needed the spring which I had carelessly dropped somewhere. Lesson learned. They are not miracle workers but they can fix and engrave most things.

He offered to do it while I was waiting (which I was hoping). He had some difficulties to identity the correct material I think (not too many different types in stock maybe), but eventually got the job done in I think less than half an hour. It was much quicker (and not more expensive) when I went to the shoe repair in Levenshulme last time.

Family owned and run, a tiny shop nestled between two slihtly bigger shops, easily missed if your not careful. They dont just repair shoes, they will do belts purses, anything leather that need a repair they will look at and tell you if it is possible. They cut keys and engrave, dog tags, trophys, anything you take they will look at. The guys are great and really do try to help you with anything, and there is a distinct smell inside of leater and glue that is somehow reassuring.

Well, I came in here because I'm looking for a hip flask for my girlfriend's brother which I also want to get engraved as a little present from the both of us for his 21st. They have some in the window so I came in to find prices and the like. The guy who I spoke to was kind of distracted fixing a watch at the time, and it took a few goes to actually get his attention and get him to engage in a conversation about the hip flask. But then I found out that a hip flask is £20 or so and it costs about £10 to get the engraving done. Not the cheapest I've found, but certainly not the worst. Timpson is a really useful little place, with knowledgeable staff who are just a little busy, that's all.

Weird, because I have never once in my existence considered getting some shoes repaired, but then I've never really owned anything apart from trainers and you surely can't repair those can you? Fair play to Mark Rogers, it's a good old local business competing with the more chain-style equivalent Timpson down the road, and local businesses are always worth supporting.
