I just want my own message in black type printed onto plain white cards, no photos, no fancy graphics (a la Funky Pigeon etc) Is there a good website for this?

Have you got a printer and a basic word processing program? you could do your own
You could complete your text requirements on screen and then use the Windows Snipping Tool (or Snip and Sketch in Windows 10) to save what you've created as a jpeg image. (i.e. your text would then be a 'photo'). You could then upload that 'photo' to any card production company that allows you to just use a photo without any text (as your own text will then be part of your 'photo').

For example, Funky Pigeon offer such a service here:
https://www.funkypigeon.com/card/full-photo-no-text-portrait-card-basic/10391

Photobox (where the cards are sent to you, for you to sign and post, rather than despatched to the recipient directly as with Funky Pigeon)have a 'blank card' option here:
https://www.photobox.co.uk/shop/cards/single-cards

However Woofgang's solution seems easier (and cheaper) to me. I design all my greetings cards in a DTP program but, if you only require text, word processing software would be as easy to use. I then print them onto A4 glossy photo paper, ready to be folded into two, thus creating A5 cards. As you can't print onto the back of photo paper, I print the inner parts of the cards onto A5 stickers, which I then stick inside the cards. (Ryman sell them: https://www.ryman.co.uk/ryman-universal-labels-200x143mm ). C5 envelopes (to hold A5 cards) are widely available from discount stores, supermarkets and office stationers.
Try vistaprint
^^^ Vistaprint, as suggested by Barmaid, offers an 'upload your complete design' option:
https://www.vistaprint.co.uk/holiday/christmas-cards/templates?xnid=TopNav_Holiday+Cards_Holiday+Cards_Holiday+Cards+and+Gifts&xnav=TopNav
So, as per my earlier suggestion, you could save word processing text (via the Snipping Tool) as a 'photo' and then upload that. With prices (for 10 cards) between £8.30 and £15.00 that's quite economical too.

The foregoing assumes that you require multiple cards. If you only want one, PhotoBox or Funky Pigeon would be better.
