This will amuse you!
Someone had offered 4 pairs of new trousers, size 32, on the free site. Two pairs were still in their packaging. I thought that Size 32 referred to the waist size as that's the size jeans I buy.
When I brought them home it was clear that Size 32 meant something a lot larger, probably twice the size of a size 16. I could have turned one leg of these into a dress!
The even worse thing is, when the rather large lady gave them to me I said that, if they didn't fit, I'd regift them. She didn't bat an eyelid! She could, at least, have laughed and said they may be a bit big for you.
