There's another place near Bristol as well ... I'm 99% sure they won't want to deliver to that far-flung part of the empire :lol:

I bought some directly from morland uk a few weeks ago, it was not cheap but is nice and lightweight.

Think it was about 110 a sheet

They will deliever but it will cost you £60 and need to order a min of 2 sheets

Got some pics of mine (oak)if you are interested

Excellent , Thanks Matt.

Did you just phone them direct using the number on the website? The oak veneer is the stuff I am after.

Would be interested to see some pics... Is it good stuff?

Hi Mate

Yeah just phoned them direct on the number on the website

I think the wood is great although don't have any experience with other lightweight alternatives

Here is a link to flickr where I have uploaded a few pics.

Not the best quality pics but they were taken on my phone.

Hope this helps, let me know if you need any more info

Is it a rewal wood veneer finish or is there some kind of laquer or vinyl on top?

Looks like really good stuff. - expensive but good worthwhile.

IS two sheets enough for all doors etc?
