Does anyone know of a clothes shop in algarve shopping that sells clothes in sizes larger than uk 16 as they all seem to be 8 to 10

Not sure about Guia but when I went to that excellent C&A in Faro's Jumbo centre they had clothes for very petite people or for very large people. They didn't see to have in stock medium sizes.

Not a map but the details are here:

From the new bridge take the hospital exit towards Portimao, straight over at the hospital roundabout then at the next roundabout (where the underpass starts) take the road at approx 90 degrees on your right, follow the road which will lead you around a right angle bend and down a short hill to a new roundabout. C&A and the rest of the new Portimao shopping park is opposite as you approach the roundabout. (Same route you would take if you were going to Max Mat)

You'll find that C&A at Portimao is the same too - either small or big sizes & not very much in between!

This rings true. You have to be either starving or be the cause of starvation to get the right-sized outfit!
