Vincent and the Cobblers
21 September 2011So Vince, it’s officially war of the financial variety.Well I had an idea that was coming but are you sure about where opening this can of worms could lead to...for myself I think it is the topic that should bear no name so until the worst happens could we steer clear of that sort of rhetoric , just for now.But seeing how it is officially war then I feel entitled to ask if anyone knows of a good war time back yard cobbler because I will not pay 30 odd quid for 2 soles when I just need one and then be charged another 19% for the welts to be re cut and re stitched back onto the uppers, I want a war time repair from someone who knows how to cut a single sole and thread a needle rather than squeezing the machine stitcher into places it does not fit so that my Oxford Toe becomes a Steel toe cap without the steel if your following this line.It’s time for the old time DIY cobblers to start buying up the machinery in auction houses and give the public a fair deal....38 pounds for new soles when its only the drive foot that’s wearing through, which recession/depression are these cobblers living in.. Not mine. YuHu! Tesco, any one there.kk.
