In England, when the bottom of my jeans fray I buy new ones. Here I pop down the tailors. For ten riyals ($3 dollars) they will shorten your trousers or skirt. Or they will make clothes from scratch – we were quoted 150 riyals ($40) for a blazer.

This is Mr Hamja’s shop: Beauty of Island Tailors, on Al Jazeera Street.
