While I was watching the birdbox to see whether we had blue tits or great tits nesting in our nestbox, a great tit turned up and was looking around to check it was safe to enter the box with some food. To my surprise this bird then flew into one of the other boxes near to the one I saw the chicks in yesterday. After both parents had flown off I took a quick picture to see what was in this box (it is too high for me to look into quickly, so I just held the camera up and took a snapshot).
The Great Tits appear to prefer the plastic fleece material for their nests. The Great Tit nest last year was made from the same material (which was over the top of the water butts in the garden to try and keep muck out of them).
