Colin (and others in the UK) Natracare tampons are 100% cotton and are
available from places like Waitrose. I find the fibre length a bit short
and it's quite slippery, so doesn't adhere very well to the strings, but
it sounds ok.

I have tried several makes of tampon available in the UK but they seem to be
a mixture of stuff (and often fuzzy stuff) - often polyester or the like
(although I did find one specialist firm who use pure cotton but they were
mail order only) which didn't sound very nice regardless of how often I
tried.
OB just aren't common in the UK if available at all - at least it drew blank
looks from chemist shops throughout a major UK city and cotton balls ere are
full of lumps and it takes ages to find a bit that's suitable.
Being an "older" couple it's no loer something we have around the house and
I can't just and ask someone "do you happen to have a spere tampon for my
gurdy?"
Easier to order a bag of the stuff from Texere on the Internet..
