Nope, the bleach would eat the fabric and pre dye wouldnt touch the grey :-(

Yeah! Surely there must be a Compare the Seamstress website or such out there, similar to MyBuilder or something?

I was thinking more like Ilene down the road, you know her what do the altering and her Grandchildrens fancy dress :lol: Seriously though we have a lady on our market who has her own tailoring stall. It might work out alot cheaper to find someone like that. Either that or buy a sowing machine Baron :lol:

A sowing machine Baron? Is that like Barbie but for boys? I think I would prefer a tank driving Baron myself :neerneer:

Soldiers of Fortune are a good site I can recommend them it's just their postage costs are pretty dubious.
