    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Thanks, I'll look in those places. In fact, I'm on Asda's site now looking at jumpers...

    Don't think Primark go up to my size though, I'm an 18/xl in most shops but their sizes are on the small side.

    Try Matalan, they have a great choice, they wash well and they aren't expensive :T

    Of course! Though just paid for some ebay items and forgot, doh.

    Elfen, I get that too, I've got size 7 feet and I'm 5ft8, so my toes go through a lot too, a lot of brands I only get one wear out of them. Dunnes and BHS are good, but funky ones are expensive there!

    I'll try Matalan Linda, haven't been there for ages.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    I forgot about Matalan....I'm so used to Primarni now! Ames, I get it with socks too. Most are only 4-7....and men's are too big...so it's buy the cheap ones and get the wear until they go, but usually they stretch in the wash and last!

    I love Matalan, I'm really impressed with the quality of the clothes and how they wash and iron.

    Mmmmm, Japanese rice cracker anyone?

    What's the difference between Primarni and Primark? :confused:
