Does anyone have a contact for getting clothes altered in Hurghada. I need a few pair of trousers taken in.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hope you find someone Semsema.

I've just this morning sent a pair of trousers to have a new zip put in. I had to cut myself out of them a while back as I was desperate for the loo and the zip broke at a crucial moment. Mr G laughed so hard that I tossed them in the back of the wardrobe for a few months til his laughter died down. Last week I found them again - right on cue a certain someone started laughing again.

He wasn't laughing so hard later that evening as on changing his clothes to come home from work his zip broke!

Vindication! 8)

When I lived in Sherry el Medares there was a Madame ?????? who classed herself as a tailor. My daughter brought me over 2 pairs of trousers but even a size 10 hung off me. I thought I would give this woman a go. She took them in from the inside leg!, starting at the crotch area!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The Red Sea on a stormy day has less waves than my trousers had. Totally ruined as she had also cut off the spare which I had specifically asked her not to do.

Okay you can all stop laughing now picturing these trousers of mine. :P
