Where can I buy a diary where Sunday starts the week.

Where can I buy a week-to-view 2010 diary that has Sunday as the first day of the week? I've looked on the (UK) high street, but every week-to-view diary I've seen has Monday as the first day of the week.
The fact that the week starts on a Sunday is essential. I'd also like something small and compact enough to slip into a pocket easily. I don't need to be able to record a lot of information. It's the layout of the days that's important.
I've tried looking online, but such details as layout aren't mentioned. Is there some specific search term I should be using? I'm finding lots of diaries, but nothing with enough info to enable me which one to buy.
Where can I buy one from, ether online or on the high street?

Typically in North America, we consider the week to start on Sunday and whereas elsewhere, including in Europe, it starts on Monday, so buying a weekview agenda from North America would likely get you a diary that starts the week on Sunday.

Practically any diary you buy in the United States (I don't know about Canada, but maybe urbanlenny does) will start on Sunday. The big brands here are At-a-Glance, Filofax, and Franklin Covey. Try shopping on the Amazon.com US version; I imagine their shipping will be the cheapest to the UK.
Here in the US, if you wanted a diary that started on Monday, you'd go to a specialty, high-end store, or to Franklin Covey, which is more expensive, for a custom diary or you'd hope they had one or two models with a Monday-start. Otherwise, I've never seen an off-the-rack Monday-start here. So you might want to try the same there -- get off of the high street. Find a stationer's store or a print shop and if they don't have, keep asking their opinion for high-quality stores.
Bottom line is you'll have to pay more for a Sunday-start there, either in shipping or in a higher-end diary.

It's a strange option, maybe, but every Jewish calendar begins with Sunday.
There are a bunch of them out there, but here are a couple to start with:
Option 1
Option 2
Plus, hey - free bonus! You'll know when every Jewish holiday falls next year. :)
