I have just read in a magazine that the gameboy advance sp is been reduced
in price by Nintendo.
Is this true?? ( to even things out with the reduced price of the game cube)
I have seen it for ?69.99 at one place. Anyone else seen it that cheap or is
that a one off??

AFAIK SP is not reduced. The price you saw was probably a sale price by
one store and it's not by Nintendo. Regular GBA is still $70 US (about
£50) and the SP is normally $100 US (about £65) although I don't know
how much is charged in UK.

A Gameboy Player that can play all GB games on Gamecube is $45 (£30) and
it's probably the cheapest optionm unless you want that Datel adapter
that plays only GBA games on GC for $20 (£12.50). older GB and GBC
games won't work on Datel adapter.
