Thank you. I have a pair of black work trousers that used to leave a red line around my tummy because they pinched, they are now really loose on me. Hopefully the size 20 won't be far away. I've never measured myself, I should really as I know the inches versus stones never really run in tandem. It's good that you can buy really reasonably priced clothes these days. I have bought alot in Asda, Tesco and Sainsburys in recent years. Once upon a time clothes used to be expensive regardless of where you went to. I used to shop in Principles, Zara etc when I was slimmer (and will again), but you know where I really fancy going to? .... don't laugh, Primark. My friends love it, but the clothes in there have never fitted me. I suppose that could be another goal, to buy something from Primarni
