TAILORS:
Just love J*anoko Tailors in Poppies 2, has the orange suit out the front, it is just down from the B*agus Pub. Made and Damien great tailors. Son had lined men's suit made, average price 380.000-400.000 ($48 - $52), had some skirts made with my own material 70.000 ($9), girls skirts 65.000 ($8.30) to make or 100.000 ($12.80) with their material. Had a work jacket that I loved made exactly the same with their material 270.000 ($35). Took about 3 days to make it all, suit had one fitting done for size and trouser hem. The bright colored suits that you see out the front of some tailors they sell lots of these bright suits to heaps of Ozzies that want them for fancy dress parties, Melbourne Cup etc.
Wanted a dress made for 12 yr olds graduation at the end of the year, their school makes it a big thing. Having a dress designed from a picture in a magazine, Suzie from H*ot S*ummer N*ights across the road from E*dward F*orrer, JL Legian St, about a 10 min walk down towards Melasti st same side as the Memorial. She was so patient, went way above and beyond to organize, talk thru the details considering I didn't have the daughter there with me. She is mailing the dress to me next week as it couldn't be finished in time whilst we were there due to the color of the material not easy to find. It's easy to email her. My hairdresser here in the city I live in is having heaps of dresses made for a charity, saw 3 of them finished and took them back with me on the flight, my hairdresser was ecstatic.
DRIVERS:
Ceppy - he was excellent, trekking us here, there and everywhere in his black snazzy van. He took us to U*C* S*ilver Batabulan, sort of near Denpasar. Had a ring fixed, stone fell out so they put a garnet in whilst we toured the silver factory, 110 people slaving in their little booth making silver jewelry, was an excellent tour. The jewelry shop next door one can purchase practically anything, excellent display. **Also, C*eppy has a great contact for DVD's, all 6500 (85c)each.
D*aniel S*etiawan - Excellent English speaking tour guide, took us to Tegalallang, Safari park etc. Has a 15 seater van, also a 4 wheel drive, 3 cars I think. Also does some organizing of exporting, backfilling of containers to Fremantle Oz.
