    There are quite a few in ebay shops and they start at 7p for a basic one.

    Make your own out of a bit of fuse wire.

    Sainsbury's sell packets of needles with them in. I have a spare one, if you let me know your address via PM I will post it to you.

    Thank you very much for all your ideas. Went to our local Poundshop and there was a choice of 2 kits with the threaders(!)...got one of each as they don't look all that strong. Would have been the last place I would have thought to look if it hadn't been for the suggestions on here.

    Many thanks once again and especially for the offers from people to send them :T
