He not only repaired shoes, he could make clogs - now worn by earnest looking people in Islington, but then the working man's standard footwear. What a shame they all went - but Yates's is still there, still making lovely muffins and meat pies.

I know Mez will remember ....
call in for a pie most days when in delivering around that way.
