Where can I buy a weather balloon in the UK?

I am after a weather balloon for a project, but can't find anywhere in the UK that sells them. A website would be nice

Update:

Thanks Paul. As far as I can tell this website does not deliver to the UK, so is useless to me.

Update 2:

tried ebay. In fact it was the first place I tried. All they have listed are a couple of 1960's balloons in the USA, which means the P&P is too high for me.

    Meteorological services around the world buy their balloons in bulk. There are various manufacturers. Japan is a major supplier. It is no good going to these manufacturers for one balloon. There are shops which specialise in balloons and they would be the place to look. I googled "Buy weather balloons UK" and got more than 300,000 hits. I suggest that might be a good place to start.
