Exercise books with special handwriting paper needed

Hi there
My daughter's been seeing an OT for the past few months to help with her poor handwriting. We've addressed the grip and the hand strength, and at yesterday's appointment, the OT said that all DD needs to do now is use special handwriting paper for the next couple of months to help with uniformity in her writing. She told us to get exercise books for home and school use from Phillip & Tacey that were "Ruling 8" - 3mm double lines to write between at 10mm intervals.
Thing is, Phillip & Tacey tell me they've discontinued such books, and I can't find anything else similar on the net. The OT has now gone on a month's holiday, so I can't get any more sources from her either.

Just wondering if any handwriting experts here would know of any sources? Thanks in advance.

I'm not a handwriting expert but there are free downloadable pdfs of blank handwriting paper that you can download and print - you might find something with the right sized lines - I googled handwriting paper. Not ideal for school use though. I think WHSmiths do handwriting exercise books but they may not be the right spacing.

Many thanks. Just ordered the exercise books in mrz's link. Great!

Just bumping this - mrz's link no longer works but the 'scribblers' site is just what I was after.

Just a thought to add. I just used word to create sheets with line in the right places saved the document and then printed them off as and when I needed pages.
