Thanks everyone, for your help. :D

Edit, I do have a ruler 30 in long, but it's only 2.5 in wide.

I have this one from Joanne's. I couldn't find out if they ship overseas.
It has the 1' grid and the angle lines. Have it a few years. I find the black lines on the opaque white mat are much easier to read than the green mats.

Thanks so much everyone for taking time to offer links and advice. It is frustrating sometimes how easily you can get stuff in the States that we struggle to find in Europe - maybe I'll have to move over there. :D
Lace - yes, that one is gridded in inches. :D
I've been googling rulers but can't find any longer than 24". I appreciate that a long one would be more difficult to control but it must exist - I'm sure I've seen WOF length rulers in fabric shops. I'll keep looking. :D

Oh i got a longer ruler than 24 inches. it's at least 36 with a lip on it. cant' remember who is was by. it's lines are in black.
the main rulers i use are Omnigrid and Omnigrip (those just have a bit more stability stuff on the back). good luck.
I just saw some online 4x36 inches called O'lipfa craft ruler. you might try to find those.
