Weird that there is such a variation between UK, Europe, US etc...
And I didnt see those when I google... lol...
Ok... so seeings as you are all bedding experts...
Trying to keep the costs down, but what sheets would be the harsest wearing and the crispest white colour?
I'm sure that was a poorly disguised cry of desperation
really your best just buying the biggest bedsheets there are as someone always hogs them 
Problem is with the sheets, if they're too big then they constantly come undone at the corners, don't know about you guys but it drives me mad waking up tangled in a sheet!
So far Tesco is the cheapest....anyone got any other cunning places to buy superkingsized white sheets?

ahhh 'cheap' eh? ..... don't know about the quality.... but here's another linky..
cheap s-kingsize linky
Bed sheet, share of the quilt, now there are some things most married men forgo.
Woo.. that is cheap...
Tesco do an egyptian cotten one for £18...

Im not actually planning on sleeping on this sheet...
Its for a photography backdrop and floor type thing..
Hence the need for something hard wearing (so people can stand on it) and something that is going to stay white once its washed...
Would that cheap one do the job? Its possibly only going to be used for two events....maybe washed between the two ....
I know bugger all about sheets... id sleep on the concrete floor if I had to..doesnt bother me!

Tegwin,
Try Dunelm Mill. They sometimes have reduced sheets in store. I bought some over a year ago and they still look brand new.

I've just bought sheets for the same reason!!!!
I went king sized flat sheet cause they where the largest, except you have hassle getting anything other than white.
I also bought a duvet from ASDA, 10 quid, king sized and black one side, white the other, also means its double thickness so should be better on the
light going through it.
How are you supporting the sheets? I made a frame from push fit PVC pipe, but its not very sturdy / good. Need to find another way of supporting it.
Mike... got any pics of your frame?
I was thinking about using 40mm PVC waste pipe with glued on connectors with giant split pins holding it together to make it easy to pack down...
How have you consutrcuted your frame? And how floppy is it?
I was origionally planning to make a colapsible steel frame and then use the backside of vinyl flooring painted matt white as the backdrop..
But the sheet idea will be easier to transport and allows easier lighting of the backdrop

One would hope that one would be using raw silk for such an important task!

Oh but of course Ian! Goes without saying!

Please tell me this is some kind of cruel twisted joke! You must be making it all up. Real arms-to-the-elbows-in-oily-bits men can't possibly admit to knowing about such girly stuff! Put me out of my tortured horrified misery!
Look two of us are looking at sheets to fake photography backdrops - its so we can take artistic pictures of oily bits on the cheap ..... not sure
about the rest but as Fozzie is supposed to be a girl i think we can let her off!
(i don't think i've ever called a girl an "oily bit" before!)
