Subject: Serial cable DIN plug

I went to Maplins in search of a 5 pin Domino DIN plug so that I could make 
a serial cable for BBC to PC file transfer.  I couldn't find the correct 
type there and neither could the assistant.  Rather more disconcerting was 
the fact that he'd never heard of a BBC Micro and that he told me "it must 
have been before my time".  Needless to say, I clobbered him with my 
zimmerframe and hobbled gloomily out of the shop.

Does anyone know where I can get hold of the correct type of DIN plug?  Or 
does anyone sell readily constructed serial cables?

Best regards,

Cliff
