Ranger,
The standard BS1362 plug fuse can be purchased in almost any hardware/electrical store in the U.K. or Republic of Ireland. (Although you'll pay through the nose for them at your local hardware store compared to an electrical wholesaler).
3A and 13A values are available almost everywhere; 5A is stocked by some (but not all) stores. Few domestic retail outlets stock the other values (1, 2, 7, 10A) as these are not specified for use in BS1363 plugs any more.
If you want to get your fuses sorted out before you leave Austria, if you e-mail me with your postal address I could send you a few.
