I just put loads of washing up liquid with water - no exact quantities but just a lot more than for washing up!

Liquid Glycerine?
Is that something I can buy?

Try about 4:1 washing up liquid to water. If that's too weak you can always put a bit more in but if you make it too strong you've wasted tons of fairy liquid.

but don't confuse it with nitro glycerine

sorry, had to go off, usually do about 1:4 or 1:5 washing up liquid, works quite well.

Glycerine gives the bubbles more stability apparently.
