    Dan's upbeat personality, interesting, clear and concise explinations, and general sense of humor/craftsmanship is amazing!!! You can't help but smile watching his videos!

    One of the things I like about Dan is that even though, based on this video, I have no common interests whatsoever (apart from the obvious), he seems like such a nice guy that we would probably get on well anyway

    I enjoy his cobbler channel. I had no idea that was still a thing. Dan, you have great skills and talents. Try and be less self absorbed. The world doesn’t need another big ego, but it does need articulate people who speak on behalf of those who have no voice. Make a difference, not just another statement about yourself.

    Such a beautiful soul, I mean really, the passion that he has about his family and his art in shoe repair! Is astounding to me, especially the love he has for his mother, just like me! That we have in common. Such a family man, good sense of humor, when it comes to ducky, and really charming! I could watch his videos all day. I confess, I’m a Fan of cobbler Dan 😊 (that rhyme was for you mister 🤟)

    Well done Dan. A great achievement. I am sure you will continue to grow your subscribers. You seem to be a real genuine bloke and an all round good egg. I love the videos as I am a bit of a shoe lover (as in I like wearing good shoes, not that I have a weird shoe fetish). I am also an old school metalhead so we are sort of kindred spirits. All the best for the future.
