Does anyone know where I can find the Great Britain national jersey for
sale? Is there a team England or a team UK?

there is GB team that rides in the World Champs and Olympics and other
events. Also England who ride in the Commonwealth games. The velodrome
site used to sell GB merchandise but don't seem to now. Some crop up on
eBay regularly. Foska do a St George Cross Jersey but its not official
in any way

Their website seems to be under reconstruction at the moment
www.impsort.com but I think you can get the stuff from them.

Oh, God, my memory! The people who make the England kit have just done
race numbers for me which are sitting on my desk right at this moment -
but the invoice isn't here... impsport? Yup: http://impsport.com/
However, although they do make the official England strip, I couldn't
find it on their website and you don't seem to be able to buy it from
the British Cycling website. I'd suggest you phone Impsport - they're OK
people to deal with.

Foska do an England shirt which isn't anything like the 'official'
England strip but is still quite nice:

I have their Scotland shirt and it's good quality.

Foska also do some shirts which, while not explicitly England, are
very /English/:

I've got a couple of the matching Foska water bottles for my race bike
(go nicely with the general red/black colour scheme), but hasten to add
that they're only used for squash of various flavours rather than
something stronger!

Also London Pride, Colman's and Soreen. I don't think you can call
Heinz Beans English, but Irn-Bru is most definitely Scottish.

Now, that's an idea -- Gordon's branded bidons!

Hmm.. I'd prefer Black Isle branded ones. Nice strong design, and
excellent organic craft brewed beer.

Nope. It's got to be Gordon's. <groans>

If the colour scheme was identical to the contents, not sure I'd want
to take a hefty swig from one of the Marmite-branded bottles, though
;-)

I was concerned -- I thought imp sorting had become a new Olympic
discipline, or something!

Mind you, a new, less gooey "squeezy" version of Marmite [1] is now in
the supermarkets - it could almost have been designed with these
bottles in mind ;-)

[1] Which immediately reminded me of "Squeezy Cheezy Peaz" from The
Fast Show. Enduring image, hmm, you know, isn't it? Marvellous.

Uncle Alan By Marriage lives on the Black Isle, and not a car in our
family goes from there to here without some fresh supplies in the back.

(Still prefer www.hebridean-brewery.co.uk thobut.]
