Used to have them at SCC Distribution in Cheshunt, but don't know if they still have them.

Just had a look on the site and it looks like they don't list them any more, but calling them may produce results.

Maplin do a 'Tile Mount Aerial Fixing Clamp' if you wanted to fix the dish to the outside of the roof. I have no idea how well it works.

There should be similar tiles for 2 and 3" posts in the better plumbers merchants. They are used in newer properties for the waste vents

I think they are called universal tiles, but dont quote me on that, and are made of soft alloy sheeting with a stretchy neoprene seal in the middle.
There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness"
