Oldish Hippy, I would love to answer you, unfortunately, I am unable to ascertain what it is your asking.

Any chance of using a little punctuation.

Either 6mm or 9mm ply probably for cupboards depending on spans/dimensions which you didn't mention.

For table tops probably something thicker like 12mm or 18mm ply, pine furniture board, or mdf. Again you don't mention spans, stiffening, support conditions or what finish you want so it is pretty hard to say what is best.
 
ok could measure exizsting panels but it is cold and dark and didnt want to go out side and could look online at what they stock
 
that's all right,don't go out,just guesstimate it all and we'll make up the answers,but to give an idea i reckon somewhere between 3mm and 25mm should do it
 
Hi Oldish Hippy

When it warms up a bit just pop down to your local friendly Caravan or Motorhome sales place and have a look in a few vans. Some even have a bit of a second hand junk area which you may get what you want for a couple of quid.
