Default Source of my favouriwe garden ties?

Many moons ago I bought rolls of garden ties from Lakeland, sadly they
no longer sell these. They were simply soft brown thin tubes of plastic,
I have used them for ages and now am running out of them. Can anyone
help as to an alternative source please?

Is this the sort of thing you want?

I've seen similar in the shop at RHS Wisley and elsewhere.

Not sure if it's any help, but my dad swears by 'old tights' ties. They're
soft and stretchy, and there seems to be an endless supply of them!
