Same problem myself, so I make sure I'm well kitted out every time I come down for a spell.
There's a variety of outsize stores back in the UK operating on-line, though not sure how many deliver to Spain.
Try googling Big man or Tall man stores also Jacamo/Premierman do quite a variety of extra large stuff.

As Concierge for the Spanish section of BE I would like to say hello and welcome.

BE is a very large expat website, so if you have problems finding your way around we have concierges who will try to direct you. The moderators for the Spanish forums are Mitzyboy and Fred James, moderators are there to ensure that the site runs smoothly within the rules of BE. Problems and complaints should always be addressed to a moderador who will look into the matter and deal with it efficiently and fairly. Our members who post in the Spain Forums are friendly and helpful with a wealth of knowledge of the issues of living in Spain. At the top of the page you will find a quirkily named thread called Free Beer which is full of important and useful information. Hope you enjoy your time participating in the forums.

Please let me know if you need any further help.

Rosemary

Apart from the bras - have you seen the size of the bras in the markets? Astonishing!!:blink:

We've used Cotton Traders very successfully, they deliver to Spain. We ordered online one Monday and the goods were delivered on the Thursday. Not sure how far their sizes go to accommodate your height. But they do very well for our enlarged waistlines!
