I have a old Jupiter bivvi bag that has got a few little holes and little tears where it got caught on brambles when it was last used I have emailed terra nova but not got a reply. Nobby suggested sail repair tape. Any other suggestions?

Use a bin liner as an inner?

Gorrilla tape?
I repaired a 'crack' on the reflective bit of my jacket ( using 'Camo' pattern tape
). It's tougher and more resiliant than normal gaffer/duck tape.

Sail repair tape did a reasonable job on the floor of my Decathlon tent where it got punctured by a bramble. Certainly a better long-term bet than duct tape.

have a good reputation for fixing & modifying things, but I doubt they are cheap.....
A few years ago I had a slight stove accident, I picked my Trangia kettle up & managed to pour boiling water into the live burner. Result was a melted hole in my groundsheet. I fixed it with some flavour of McNett tape & it's still going strong.

My terranova tent came with some little repair patches to use if required I think?

You can get gore repair patches as well. Get some seam sealant as well and you are sorted.
