My
first
visit
today
was
more
than
worth
the
effort.
I
couldn't
find
anyone
elsewhere
more
local
prepared
to
fine
stitch
repair
the
torn
lacing
support
on
one
of
a
pair
of
near
brand
new
shoes
so
I
emailed
the
repair
shop
and
took
the
train
all
the
way
to
Formby
(from
Liverpool).
A
member
of
the
team
had
emailed
back,
after
receiving
my
brief
description
of
the
repair
needed
and
photos,
to
reassure
me
not
only
that
the
job
would
be
done
but
also
there
and
then
on
the
spot
"to
save
the
trouble
of
going
back
and
forth
to
Liverpool".
Not
only
was
the
repair
completed
immediately,
as
promised,
inbetween
visiting
customers,
it
was
done
very
quickly,
most
efficiently
and
to
my
enormous
satisfaction.
On
top
of
that,
the
shop
owner
was
so
friendly
and
chatty
and
charged
me
at
such
a
low
price
I
felt
embarrassed
and
chose
to
actually
add
a
little
more
to
what
he
charged.
Formby
Shoe
Repairs
is
a
special
shop.
It
is,
unlike
your
average
Timpsons,
obviously
equipped
specifically
to
attend
to
most
any
type
of
shoe
repair
that
more
standard
shoe
repair
shops
will
not
even
attempt.
The
damage
to
my
shoe
was
minor
but
would
have
meant
my
not
being
able
to
wear
the
still
near
new
pair
in
relative
comfort
and
also
at
the
risk
of
damaging
them
further.
I'm
not
aware
of
another
repair
shop
like
it
on
this
side
of
the
river
and
I
won't
hesitate
to
go
back
next
time
I
find
myself
in
need
of
any
type
of
shoe
service.
Formby
Shoe
Repairs
is
highly,
highly
recommended!
