Day 15 - Tailor

Today is Wednesday.  I am tired from yesterday, so I worked on catching up on my blog.  I am still trying to get the registration numbers I need to buy railway tickets.  Sometime during the day I accidentally moved some wires which caused Eli's desktop computer to reboot.  Now I am locked out of his computer until I get the login password.

I did some laundry.  In the afternoon I called the tailor.  He came over right away.  I expected a woman, but he assured me that he is the tailor, not his wife.  His name is Soun.  His English is not great, but we communicated enough to settle on a fee and he knows what I want done.  650 rupies for sewing the saree, 100 rupies for adding trim to shawl, 20 rupies for adding sleeves to the tunic I bought.  I will get it all back on October 20.  He took some measurements and was done in 30 minutes.

Not much else to report.  A quiet day.
