    This was a fun job and can't believe the customer snagged them for £7! Who can spot what Ron & Reggie were up to?

      Who won the Tic Tac Toe game??? Was Ron commiserating his loss or celebrating his win?

      You should make a list of the songs you use in your videos. Also thank you for making videos that show pride and real craftsmanship in a dying trade. Hopefully it will inspire more people to learn it.

    Dan, you are quite literally "The Man" :) So surreal having my shoes in one of your videos. You have done a fantastic job. I forgot to mention that they were also in the original Crockett & Jones box and shoe bags. I know they were pretty battered but I still think they were a nice find. Thanks ever so much again!

    These videos make my day. I live in the Triple Cities in Upstate NY, and all of the older generations of my family worked for Endicott-Johnson. E-J was the world's largest tanneries and shoemakers for about 75 years. Watching these videos makes me feel like I understand what used to happen here when E-J was still in business. Even more so, these videos make me appreciate why making the investment in high quality shoes is something everyone should really be trying to do. Shoes that can last a lifetime (or more!) through repairs at a cobbler are an obvious choice that I wish more people would make.

    Love the rolled-up cutoffs. In college in the 80s, because we didn't have any money... when the knees blew out of our jeans, we'd cut them off and roll them up just above the knees. We'd get another year or so of wear out of them. ;)

    I work at a hotel, and when i came in there were several guests in our lobby being loud and cursing, so i had to go over and ask them to be quiet
    about 30 min later, the main offensive group went to bed, and it was a group of guests that had stayed with us the previous few nights and i had interacted with before that was left.
    I walked over with a stern look and said look guys...how many times do i have to tell you... (at this point they started looking like oh crap what did we do) ....thank you for being quiet and calm. it really makes my job easier.
    they all just sat there blinking for a few seconds before they realized what i had said (they were a few drinks in) and started laughing with me

    Talking of getting knickers in a twist, My girlfriend woke up late today and had to pay the mortgage.
    She jumped out of bed pulled her jeans on, got dressed and drove to the city to the local building society.
    She walked about 5 mins through the city and queued up in the building society.
    It wasn’t until she was at the counter waiting for the clerk to process the payment she glanced down and to her horror her knickers from the day before were hanging out the bottom of her jeans! 🤣🤣
    She had to discreetly crouch down, yank them out and stuff them in her coat pocket but not before the whole building society had seen them first!

    It's all about the tools. Yes, there are Craftsmen in every field. But, not all are Craftsmen that take pride in their craftsmanship. Some say "It's Good Enough", a Craftsman says "It can always be better" and goes the extra mile, doing things no one will ever know he did.
    I've been painting cars since k was 12, and still think k can do each job better than the next. I'm a Jack of many, master of one.

Needless to say it worked just as well on her as it does to your subscribers, and by the end of the night we were covered in- actually i'll stop there and leave it to your imagination. I'll never forget last night! Thanks for the catchphrase Dan!!!
