Do you have any 99p stores locally... I got ours from there, cheap as chips at 99p each!

Hi,

Ebay has 2 packs of 2m x 10m for £4.35 - I've bought a couple from this seller for a fruit cage I'm planning:

If you can find debris netting it's a very good option. Local building site nearing completion might be worth an ask if you don't want to buy it  ;)
