Usually those old fashioned underwear shops tucked down a back street but I recently saw some in M&S.

I'm hoping that, but I don't want to go trapesing from shop to shop and they don't all do them.

I think Primark do but wouldn't think H&M do them.

I'm only going to be wearing them for one trip I think so don't want expensive ones.

I've not seen any in H&M but TKMaxx may be a good bet.

Primark do some nice ones. I buy men’s size small and the long sleeved tops are very good. I bought them and the long johns for my ex when he worked in a fish factory that was freezing. He took them to use in Finland because they kept him so warm.

I'm not sure there are camping shops where I'm going. I need very large ones too, so has to be a shop that sells men's or plus size for women.

My Lidl might have them but they are only a small store and things sell out very quickly. I can walk there, so it's no hassle to pop in now and then to check.

There should be a TK Maxx where I'm going I think. I want to go to the shops that definitely sell them first and try others if I have no joy from them.

Primark sizes are a bit on the small side and the largest sizes of anything always sell out first. Plus, it's like a jumble sale in there sometimes and I hate rummaging.

The other thing you could try are fleece lined leggings. They are really common to find and stupidly warm. They feel weird to wear as you can't feel any breeze past your leg, my daughter loves hers and wears them to disintegration point.

I usually avoid as it stresses me out in there but my grandkids love the Christmas pjs and socks from there. My granddaughter is coming with me tonight and I know she will want to go in there for a rummage. There's just too much stuff for my brain.

I googled 'fleece lined leggings stockists' and it came up with more options than I thought it would. New Look being one of them.

If they are stretchy I might fit in New Look ones. I know there's definitely a New Look where I'm going. It's having my size that will be a problem.

Heat Holders brand. Their XL is size 20-22 and they are stocked in major stores such as Debenhams, Go Outdoors and Blacks.

You could order online and have them delivered to a store there perhaps.

Because a lot of shops either don't stock big enough or the sizing is smaller than usual.

Mountain warehouse have a sale on Merino wool base layers at the moment.

The advantage of Merino wool is that it is a natural fibre, so it is soft on the skin. Also it is a natural antimicrobial, which means it deters bacteria and the subsequent odour from sweat.

It's in one of the retail parks rather than the shopping centre itself, the opposite end from IKEA as you go towards the motorway.
