If you're like me, you're probably adjusting to new clothing sizes, shoe sizes, and possibly even temperatures, as well as a different monetary system.

Here's a good site to help you with all those conversions:

My dress size has gotten a lot bigger moving from the US to the UK. But the good news is, my feet are smaller!

Yeah, I'm very proud of my little feet. I love telling my best friend back in Seattle that I only wear a size 7 shoe. LOL

Welcome to the forum, Mick and Gail. Yes, my huband is from Coventry, and we visit family there 2-3 times per year.

Can't help you with information on Spain, but I'm sure someone around here can. They're very knowledgeable and helpful on this forum!

Brits are more honest in sizing , they do not cater as much as America to make consumers feel happy , even sport in America caters to fans fatesies , just look at wresling for instance !!!!!
