I Have 3 old CRT monitors (2 17" and one 15") all with power cables that I
would be *delighted* to let you have...

However I suspect you had in mind a TFT display so I'll understand if
that's not what you are looking for.

Have you heard of Jamies Computer Club (it's a charity that recycles
computer kit in the Southampton area)

http://www.jamies.org.uk/

They sell all kinds of old kit and usually have power leads going cheap.
I've no idea if they have any TFT displays (I know they used to have
hundreds of CRT ones :)
