Important info:

Dear customer

Just to let you know that I will be closed on Wednesdays from now on. Having done six days a week for what seems like forever, I'm hoping to catch up on the infinite DIY list I've accumulated over the years. 😆

Sorry for any inconvenience but I'll be at your service as usual for the rest of the week. 😊

I've had this photo of my grandad in his shop for years and it always seemed rather sad as to it's condition. Now thanks to Benjamin Llalana, its been brought to life again.

My grandfather fought in WW1 with the Scottish Rifles. He was severely wounded jumping into a trench and repatriated sometime in 1916. It seems he then started working for a boot repairers in 1921 and shortly after that opened Macdonald's Cobblers in Maryhill Road Glasgow. My dad took it on when grandad retired in the sixties but sadly it folded when he died at 45 in 1982. I always dreamt of opening again in their honour and I'm so proud of both of them. ❤️❤️❤️

Dear all,

Apologies but I will be closed today from half past two for a funeral.

I hope to be back open around 4.15 - 4.30.

Really sorry for any inconvenience.

Alan.

A big merry Christmas to all my friends, and customers [and both!😊]
Hope you all have a magic time.
Thank you everyone for your amazing support this year, not just with work for me, but with the marathon and with the community power opposition to Timpsons too.
Christmas hours to follow...😊
Happy Christmas 🎄

Dear all,

On the back of the withdrawn Timpsons application and the relief that brings, and the fact that it's our 10th wedding anniversary, me and wee wifie are going to have a mini break. Sound of music country here we come! 🎶

So I will be closed from Thursday 20th for a few days. Reopen Tuesday 25th at 9 again as usual.

Sorry for any inconvenience. 😊

This lady is such an introvert 😆

Application withdrawn!

Regarding the application for a Timpsons pod, as of 4pm it has been withdrawn. I like to think it is the weight of our community's response which has been the most phenomenal and humbling experience, and that it is that which has made this possible.

Can I just thank each and every one of you who encouraged, and spent your valuable time objecting, from the dear lady who's not on the Internet and who hand delivered a card, to our brilliant MP Cameron Thomas MP.

All power to a cohesive, caring community. ❤️
