PC Music to Stereo - wirelessly...

Please can someone help me with what is probably a really simple problem,
just a case of finding a simple product to do the job...

I have (well ok my dad has - but that is besides the point!!) a notebook
with radio shows and music on it's hard disk which is used to play back
when
away from home. Works fine. Also a stereo which has phono inputs. All
normal
so far.

The problem is trying to play music from the notebook through the stereo.
Yes, ok all silly jokes aside - and I am sure you have all thought of at
least one here!! Plugging a cable from one to the other works fine. The
problem is that the stereo is on one side of the room and the laptop is
used
or placed on the other. A cable is not practical or safe.

So my question is this:
Does anyone have / can anyone recommend a device which can plug into the
speaker socket of the notebook, transmit the audio wirelessly to either a
receiver connected to the phono imputs of the stereo or which the stereo
can
pick up as a radio station?

I have had a look on the interweb for this sort of thing, but the choices
seem variable and I would prefer to purchase one from a recommendation.

So anyone able to add an opinion?

Thanks in advance.

Dave

PS: I have a deadline to purchase one of 20 Feb as that is when I am flying
to france to see him and need to take it with me then.
