Afternoon,

A colleague of mine came back from local pound shop at lunch and bought a couple oh lightning cables knowing I was looking out for a new cable to keep on my person.

Should there be anything to be concerned about with these cables? I don't seem to have noticed any ill effects or random messages etc.

£2 for two cables seems good value as emergency charging cables!
 
There's always a risk with cheap third party cables. Your call whether there's a reason to worry or not.
 
Make sure on the package it has this picture:

Or when you order online it said Apple Certified or MFi certified.
