    http://www.dryicedirectory.com/ <- that lists places that sell Dry Ice including a few in the UK. Some of those places may also have LN2

    See if there is any welding supply houses. They might be able to direct you to a place that sells LN2. I use one that sells all sorts of welding supplies and sells gases also one of them being LN2.

    BOC sell the stuff but you will need an account
    1. The first rule of Bench Club is, you do not talk about Bench Club
    2. The second rule of Bench Club is, you do not talk about Bench Club
    3. If someone says stop, goes limp, taps out, the the benching is over
    4. No bummers in the batcave, apart from unkie dave
    5. One Bench at a time
    6. No air, no water
    7. Benching will go on as long as they have to
    8. If this is your first night at Bench Club, you have to Bench

    For Dry Ice, I think these guys are great. £55 delivered (plus vat I think) for 2x10 kg bags, next day delivery.

    LN2 in the UK has been hard to get and I gave up, but I'm pretty sure you'll need your own Dewar and you'll have to deal with specialty shipping.

    As well, I'm pretty sure you're supposed to have a handing licence here in the UK, and that's not an easy process, but if you can find a good supplier you might be ok.

    Cheers
