Hey Dan, where are you?
Isn't there a maidenhead aquatics near you?
If not try:

We got a huge piece from there for our tank, it hardly needed soaking to release the tannins either.
We soaked it in hot water over night, then the next 2 days in cold, and the water was basically clear.
Not too expensive either, think our piece cost us £18

When I first started to get into this hobby, I looked at this site and got one piece from them, as the pictures are of the actual pieces they are selling, not just representative.

However, since then I have got more enjoyment out of looking around all my LFS's and rummaging through their pieces, as I have now found three pieces from them that are great and good value for money. All down to the size of the tank and how big a piece you want, the large piece in my tank cost £25 as it was quite big and fairly solid, but today I got two lovely pieces which are currently soaking for £11.

Ours looks similar in size to yours, although it has a big point stretching upwards.
Reall solid, but with the odd hole for planting little plants in.
It was if it was specifically designed to be used by us, for our tank.
i.e perfect!
