This probably is no help but they sell flax seeds in the big tescos so maybe they'd have some? Or how about holland and Barret?

Though some big supermarkets do sell the linseed (aka flax in USA) you wuld do better pricewise buying the seeds and grinding them yourself. I can buy golden linseeds from our local independant health food store for about half the price of the preground stuff I have seen in Tesco and Asda.

Also if you do buy the ground linseed you need to keep it in the fridge or freezer as it can go rancid quickly. I grind up a batch every few days when needed using my coffee grinder.
