Yeah, a lot of these parts come from a bike recycling charity place. You dump the bike and they either fix it up and sell it on and tear it apart for spares. Consequently there's a crapload of cheap old bits. Unfortunately I went in last night and measured every black seatpost and there's not a single one that is 26.0mm. I didn't measure the silver ones. Nothing blue in sight.
Edit: got the tyres for £5 each - felt like I got ripped off a bit as one is pretty worn, but the other is basically new so fair enough I guess.

Keep the fork.
It goes with the saddle.
Blue seatpost? Cheap and abundant I reckon.
£1 stems?!
