The neat little Island Keyer Kit might suit.
I don't know if it's still available, but here's the spec:
Quote:
straight key memory, works with bug, keyer or key
attempts to capture the unique timing of an operator's fist
variable sidetone frequency
works as code practice oscillator
8 memories in two banks of 4
4 momentary switches built in, no wiring needed
selectable looping (beacon mode) for each memory
low power, sleep mode: 1 uA w/ 9 volt battery
over 90 char message length, non-volatile memory
4 selectable playback speeds
kit includes circuit board & components shown
add your enclosure, piezo, jacks and a 9V battery snap
Size is 2.2 x 1.5 inches - fits into a candy tin with room to spare
Price is $22.00 plus $2.00 shipping/handling in USA
Add $3 to above price for Worldwide (DX) orders
End quote.

Hope that helps.
25 dollars US? Less than fifteen quid.
(I usually send dollar bills to the States for small things up to
50 dollars rather than much about with paypal or creidt cards).
