I usually get my large sheets from S H G

see,

http://www.shgmodels.com/acatalog/

They go to most shows with a stand so I order large sheets before hand and collect on site.

Try Hinleys of Sheffield  they're school suppliers  look under hips plastic 0.5 mm to 2.75 mm think sheets can be up to 610x 1300 plus and postage is very good or was as I go and pick mine up.

we will be at Warwick this year with the sheets
we do not have the full sheets on the site as it is very expensive to pack and ship them for u K approx £15.00 for 1 - 5 sheets or you can collect from our shop.
