thanks all, been reading with interest, glad it's not just me that has issues! I'll click through all the links tonight when I've got more time
I'm a size 10 with big boobs - nothing fits my boobs, waist and shoulders - at best I can pick 2!
Shorts I have found investing in castelli level rather than dhb level is definitely a worthwhile investment - at 5'4 though my castelli longs that fit round the waist still tuck in to my shoes and nearly reach my toes!
