Thanks for the laugh. I'm horrified just imagining it. So THAT's why sports bras don't always have zippers.

Ha ha ha ha ha. I've just booked a fitting at John Lewis. Hopefully I'll get something. If I fail, I'll get a very long compression bandage and an old nappy pin. I'll look like a mummy but I won't jog about. π
