I bet it was Lauriston St that I was thinking of - one way street in neighbourhood i know well, but rarely go down. Thank you! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=847#post-7404 Tue, 25 May 2010 13:32:16 +0000 Kirst 7404@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>There's a leather repair place on either Lauriston Street or Lady Lawson Street - he's very good. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=847#post-7393 Tue, 25 May 2010 12:33:45 +0000 Kim 7393@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Do you mean William Scott &amp; Son sporran makers? The place always looks like it has shut down but they are still in business.</p> <p>I like have a look for other options when I next go down Causewayside. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=847#post-7388 Tue, 25 May 2010 11:55:36 +0000 SRD 7388@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I'm sure that last time I cycled (or walked, having left bike?) from the BikeWorks to Dalkeith Road, I cut through to Causewayside via Sciennes House Place, and noticed a little leather repair shop on the left hand side. Did I imagine this? or has it closed? or is it on a different road entirely? </p> <p>Any advice appreciated, or suggestions for somewhere else local that might be willing to restitch a much-loved pair of heavy sheepskin slippers. </p>
