Hi Paul,
You might want to check here:

He lives is Scotland (but doesn't claim to be Scottish), sells
meteorites (UK ones too), is an ex-rock-drummer, purchased a fall from
Ireland last year, found his own Scottish meteorite, and does pretty
good at his business. Might want to give him a jingle.

Have a good one,
Dave
