I would like to put some cable IDs on 2.5 and 1.0T&E (ie on the
external cable - not on internal conductors). Ideally I would like to
put numbered "rings" on - I've been browsing the various sites but
can't find anything big enough.
There are obviously loads of "tie on/write it on yourself" types - but
I want something which will look the d's bs.

Any suggestions?

(Went in RS today to buy some bits - asked for a catalogue and came
home with a full boxed set of 5 - an awful lot of light reading ;-)

Numbered rings are not normally used for this, instead markers are placed
on a carrier and the carrier is then attached to the cable with two cable
ties. Take a look in the RS catalogue for Ovalgrip LFH Cable Markers or
take a look at the RS website, under Cable and Connectors / Cable
Accessories / Markers / Markers and select the second page and look for it
there. I can only see the markers there, but the picture shows the carrier,
so you'll know what to look for. but I don't know where to find it!
