Try your local motor factor, peugeot, eurocarparts, andrew page etc. Obviously the peugeot one will be a better quality and last longer but then again it will be more expensive, so shop around and go for the best one you can afford. What engine do you have?

U could goto one of the exhaust based garages that pop up everywhere lately and get it welded up for around 50 quid...i did it after replacing centre pipe and backbox for new the front pipe with the cat seemed ok but after a couple month the front pipe with the cat snapped off from rust away from the new centre pipe...i was miles from home and after my bodge to hold up fell off i drove with it scraping for a good while

And when i went to exhaust place onto ramp front pipe had ground down on road taking a 45degree slice off the pipe...now because the pipe/cat is expensive i got them to weld a peice on and weld the join up and its been fine since and this was 5months ago and cost 50quid...a lot less than a cat and pipe.
