You know, the stuff you iron on to your cricket whites to adjust the length. Anyone know where to buy it?

Most supermarkets mate, less than a quid.

Failing that, use staples and go old school ;)

I looked in the supermarket today and couldn't find it, but then it's one of those items that you're never quite sure which aisle to look in.

Just ask someone, usually at the end of an aisle...I believe the term is 'haberdashery'

I had the wife on it, but her sewing machine has broken down :(

I need the whites for his weekend, so wonderweb is a temporary solution.

no, the mcc pj's come tailored.

they problem with asking the wife to do the trousers is if they aren't perfect you still have to be grateful... ! ! :o

Is there a fabric wearhouse near you? They have it.

If you really struggel you can staple them up too.
