Uniform alterations - inexpensive military tailor??

[buffalox]

This is rather urgent as I need to have all my uniform up to scratch by the second week in March.

I only really need minor alterations for the most part, but my No. 1s need to be relaced with scarlet distinction cloth and I don't want some local tailor to completely mess it up! Suffice to say I have decided not to remortgage the house in order to pay for the work to be done at Gieves, and so am looking for an alternative. Although I am in London, I am prepared to travel a reasonable distance for this!

Many thanks for your attention!

Must still be a decent tailor in the Shot, not far from London.

That's a very good idea - the problem is that it's very difficult to actually find these people without a name etc. as no-one seems to have a presence on the internet (perhaps they're not to sure about this new-fangled internet thing) but at least I have another place to concentrate my search on. Thanks!

Don't know how long it would take you to get to Pompey but theres a couple there, and you could try Louis Bernards?

There'a a military tailor on Queen's Avenue in Aldershot, just beside the church. I got a pair of trousers repaired there (not military!) and they did a nice job.

There's also a dry-cleaners beside the sports shop which says in its window that it does military tailoring, but I've not had anything repaired there (also Aldershot).

Louis Bernards
That fat bastard has been ripping off Nods for way too long. W4nker that he is
Buffalox, in the words of top shag, Cilla Black, "who are you and where do you come from"

Ruth, any chance of a phot of you in yer theater rig?
I can`t help meself when it comes to a girl in green
If not, any phot will do and I`ll just use photoshoppe

'Fraid I don't have any of me in theatre (apart from "official" ones where my tummy's being used as a nice backdrop for the specimen), but I can do better than just any old photo as I'm not sure if photoshop was designed for that degree of alteration. Don't want to crash the system!

How's about a nice worn set of greens?

[harry hackedoff]

Don`t mention tummy ,withdrawal and specimen if you don`t mind young lady, ffs
It creates a certain impression
Hmm, best I move out then

[Ruth]

Have you been hiding your tablets again, Harry?

All I meant was that when someone's hand has got caught in the blender, green is such a nice contrast to red...

[harry hackedoff]

green is such a nice contrast to red...

or orange, perhaps.

Well, if there's a nice bit of white tendon or bone in the middle!
