Cobbler express

What are the chances of me finding a cobbler when I am looking for a cobbler. I quickly grabbed my boots out of my bag and the man behind the counter (although he was working) was slow to greet me. I was met with a ghastly face and a «those can’t be fixed» response. He then turned his back to me. No solutions and no sympathy. We are talking about a woman’s boots! And, I did what any other female would have done… kept walking. Clearly, there must be a better-​behaved Cobbler in Perth with manners to boot!
