sounds a good buy to me just trying to work out if our double chamber airbed will go in  the 3 berth, as the two 2 berths we have won't zip up with it in shame as bed is great

Sunncamp? If their Universal inner is the same quality as the one they make for underbeds  in TTs then its not worth £12.50. I bought a Sunncamp undertent a couple of years back when Argos were selling them and returned it as unfit for purpose after one trip. The fabric was flimsy and almost transparent and wouldn't have stopped the slightest draft, really.

Of course they might have improved since then, but might be worth checking it before you take it out in earnest?

Just got it out of the bag to have a look. it's nylon material , like my tent inners, and yes it is quite thin, but so are my outwell and wynnster inner tents . I don't know how good it would be in an awning, the last inner tent we had in an awning was a thick cotton one.

For my intended use inside a tent with sig I think it will be fine .

I've seen them for almost twice this price everywhere else I've looked.

I think they are all nylon now. I've just bought a 2nd hand cotton one for £10.00 from Jacksons which is better value than the nylon one from towsure.

Incidentally if anyone is  looking for TT undertents then Pennine-Conway and Cabanon both make really good thick cotton ones with heavyweight bathtub groundsheets. Not cheap at an eye-boggling £50 each but given that its probably your kids sleeping under the bedboards on the ground, what price their health and comfort? They pop up on Ebay at a regular rate for around £30 for a second hand new version but you can also get the older ones from TTs that folk have broken for spares.

I am considering making a large inner tent for our frame tent. The two inners are fine but it feels really unfriendly with each of us in an inner by themselves. I thought about cutting a hole in the two side walls and sewing them together but don't really want to do that as it seems a shame to mess them up. So I would like to make an inner tent for the two of us. We have an old cabanon inner ground sheet which I can use but I am wondering what to use for the walls. Would cotton sheets be too heavy or maybe polyester, would that be breathable enough, don't fancy nylon, all sweaty I reckon. Any suggestions please?

Best would be polycotton, of the standard 65% polyester/35% cotton type, or there abouts. You can buy it by the yard/metre in fabric shops.
