Any branch of Maplins will have them. Also try Halfords

Thanks BigAl!
Cheapest I've found so far is about 50 quid, and at that price, it's worth thinking about buying an in car dvd player instead, especially when they are around for as low as 99 quid (see topics on either quick, grab it while you can, or shop but don't drop, can't remeber which it's in). Maplins have one for 99 quid. Looks like it'll be pens and paper, and 'are we nearly there yet?' for this trip! Should have known not to leave it to MrMumstheword to sort out........but that's a whole new topic!!!!!
