Not sure if they sell it mail order though. But they are in the midlands.

I did some driving for Leicester Ceiling Supplies (0116 244 0060) a
few years ago. Considering some of the distances I had to go with
plasterboard deliveries I reckon their prices must be keen.

B&Q are expensive for a few sheets, but usually have a decent bulk
discount on 10 or more. They don't list the discounts on the web site
though - you'll have to phone the store or go in.

Wickes do have that size, even if it's not on the website.
