Try local self-storage places, they often have it. Otherwise if you only need a little, Rymans/other stationers/local post office. You could also order it from the 'net - places that sell flat-packed boxes for house moving usually sell bubble wrap.

It would make a great homemade airbag too!!

In an accident though you'd have people running for cover thinking there's some mad ****er with a gun firing ***** nilly.

Anybody fancy trying it?

A bit off subject but,

Who likes clicking the bubbles between their fingers, I do, I find it relaxing.

She, on the other hand doesnt find it relaxing at all, not when Eastenders is on anyway.

You can get sheets with huge air pockets, we had some in work last week. The bubbles were about the size of half a tennis ball.

I did look a bit childish stamping on them though.

I got greenhouse insulation (i.e.) bubble wrap form B&Q and a massive roll cost about £12 and I still have 2/3rd of it left despite using a massive amount of the stuff to wrap a centre section and backbox!

Any decent size garden centre. Outside on huge rolls and about 1/100 of the price as sold in the Post Office. Circa £1.99 per metre for 2 metre width. DL

Garden Centre's where we get all ours from - huge rolls and various bubble sizes.

Very handy.

Typical Scotsman, didn't want to spend out on exhaust wrap so he uses this.

When his exhaust warms up he'll know about it!!!
