Re: Clothing
Mind you there aren't that many places around here that cater for over a certain size or very tall ppl.
Saw loadsof clothes shops in Melbourne last year and hubby was quite happy as they had surf shops and he does like his animal, rip curl, and quicksilver stuff.
I'll miss Next but hell the rellies back here can send out stuff for birthdays and xmas if necessary

I'm even tempted to watch Formula 1 qualifiying even though I know the result, that's how smashed I am
9 months? Ah, 'tis nothing, it's worth the wait, believe me
Good Luck,
Matt
(edit) had a mate from Rotherham, spent some time there walking and climbing, enjoyed myself immensely, great people.

I was having a look in Myer the other day (recent threads fresh in mind), first time looking at clothes in 2 years
the other day and King of std was Van Huesen 50 odd bucks let down by crap cut in the collar but saved by a more expensive European cut at $65There was a another make escapes me now for about $70 let down by the cutaway collar being the wrong cut, and the decent stuff with a truly cutaway collar yet not too big is $100 plus.
