A Galaxy of Clothiers in the City of Accra
This threadbare city supplies its
own golden gifts. Clothiers, clusters of them, in kiosks are hung on the corner
of every street. Caftans, kabas and cardigans; suits, skirts and slits; jumpers,
jackets, jumpsuits and jeans; they make them all. Frocks, tunics and pajamas too. And there’s a tailor/dressmaker for every epoch, pocket and preference. Only
downside, your clothes will be ready in two weeks or three or six; it all
means the same thing to them.

lol...'it all means the same thing to them'. They can even ask you to come tomorrow or the next hour. The true period is when you come two weeks time and 'sit on' him/her to complete it.
ReplyDeleteExactly. So you risk a serious let-down if you commission them with less than 3 months to the event.
DeleteTop notch customer service....Ghana style.
ReplyDeleteWhat can I say? I almost understand them, when so-called interational telcos are giving us bull crap for service.
