Where to get film developed+ where to buy black and white film?

    Between myself and the OH we have maybe 10 colour films to be developed and a number of disposable cameras. All of these films are C-41 (though of different makes and types such as Kodak prof BW400C which I presume I may have to specially label).

    Wondering does anybody have any suggestions where to get these developed and printed (probably to standard size),at a reasonable price and quality, been considering using a postal service as I can use a NI address for delivery however been looking at prices online and most seem to be around 7 sterling a price that probably means I'd go for Gunns the next time I'm in Dublin for a while. Any recommendations welcome.

    Also any ideas of where to buy Black and White film, I had bought up a big stock last year from a Boots that was doing clear out (including some process paid slide film for 3 quid :D ), mainly used Ilford before but open to trying other brands especially if very high/low ISO.

    www.7dayshop.com seems to have some black and white film for sale, though unfortunately it has a 6 pound delivery charge to Ireland (uk delivery is free)

    also saw this place selling Kodak BW400CN 36 exp (slightly out of date) at a cheap price (though this is developed like colour film)

    Most of the camera shops in Dublin will have B&W film. I tend to use Maco Direct, and the per-roll prices work out well.

    From the UK, I've used Mailshots. Mailshots tend to be very reasonable for postage.
