Test match reached its inevitable conclusion today by fizzling out to a draw. Most exciting part of the day was trying to count how many times Georgia Elwiss picked a wedgie.
Must be uncomfortable having the elastic go when you've gotta spend all day standing in front of a crowd of thousands.
It is an ongoing battle with me to find knickers that don't crawl up my arse within 5 mins of putting them on. I used to buy hi-cuts but when the manufacturers started making the rears triangular (seriously does anyone have a triangular butt?) instead of square - I imagine because you can make more pairs with a bolt of cloth that way - I have found them impossible.
I now buy hipsters. Better, but I find them a little cutting around the hip. But that's better than having them run up my arse cheeks.
And have you noticed it's now IMPOSSIBLE to buy pure cotton knickers? They've all got fucking lycra in them. Great on a hot summer day. Or humid.
Since I'm a practitioner of "find a good piece of clothing and buy a lot of it" I haven't needed to purchase undies since I lost weight. Must be more than five years now. Might be closer to ten. Dunno. It's gonna suck when I start running out and have to buy new ones though.
Bonds boyleg hipsters. The 95% cotton ones. The best anti-wedgie knickers on the market. Also very long-lasting but 10 years might be stretching things (!) Do you hand wash them or something
I have an underwear draw that's full of underwear, and I use a strict rotation system, which means each pair only gets warn about a dozen times per year. It also means that they all start to wear out at about the same time.

95% is not 100% though. :(
I bought a bunch of Bonds "cotton" ones a while back and they were fine for a while but now they butt-crawl up my crack like the rest of them. :(
And also, I struggle to buy this sort of thing in plus-sizes. And I have found that buying knickers too big increases the chances of hungry undies.
