    Ok so just bear in mind when measuring that eyelet curtains like the first ones will sit right up at curtain pole level whereas the second ones will dangle from it (you can choose to a certain extent where in the band at the top of the curtain you put the curtain hooks that attach to the rings).

    168cm width (which both the examples i gave you are) should be ok as that's for each panel so 2 x 168cm (just get two if it's a door curtain)

    Thanks for the links and info. Just hoping to find something cheaper as don't want to spend £100 on them as got many more jobs to sort out round the house. :(

    I just added some from eBay for £42 and 2 x £20 for the argos ones is obviously £40. I just picked the first suitable ones I found on eBay so there could be cheaper ones.

    That's it for me, so good luck!
