Screwfix! Gotta love that service - admittedly their flat rate shipping would be too much for just a box of gloves...

If you don't have a chemist near you that sells them, Base, I'd be happy to post some to you. If you want me to just and I'll send them right off (in fact, the chemist where I buy mine is right next to the post office)

Parafilm on ebay still pricey, but if like me, you cant afford the whole roll.Sends very quickly as well for under 6 quid.
Probably find a better deal from a user on here like 
2" x 12 ft.
Parafilm

Im having big problems peeling the back off the parafim from that seller, my last lot slipped straight of the paper, seems like its been left in a warm place? Cant get the back of with latex gloves on.Quite annoying and fiddly.

I find it pretty tough with gloves on. Best way I sorted out was to tear the paper in the middle of the strip then it is a bit easier to get an edge up. Still not easy just the way I found that helps me.

You can get it for half that price, like I did.
When they delivered it, there was a tear in the bag. I emailed them and sent pictures of the tear and showed them how it was pouring out onto my floor(it really wasn't that bad.)
But seriously, 1 bag will last you about a year.worse part about it is finding some where to put it. I put mine in a 80 liter tub and its pretty full.

Microwave Epsom salts to remove the water or use a hot skillet or the oven if you are being slow.

Haven't built one myself, but these guys http://www.growell.co.uk have grow tents, and lots of other things that might be useful, though their humidifiers are expensive. I ordered the plastic framing from them (making shelves for my grow cupboard).
