    Hey @marketto007, I just spent the weekend in London and it was great. One thing that struck me was the absence of a 007 fan shop. While this would be the most natural thing in the world for London, I don't see why a Tintin fan shop can exist, but selling Bond memorabilia has apparently not crossed anyone's mind.

    Actually, when I was at the QOS premiere, I was in a book store, which pretty much hold everything Bond. Was not far from Leicester Square, that is all I remember.

    The best place is the Cinema store Upper St Martin's Lane which is a 5 minute walk from Leicester Square. Its movie specific but it does sell Bond stuff books/mags/posters, some toys etc, but its preety limited Bond specific.
    Its worth a look though.

    This is just around the corner from my office, I popped in yesterday. They have a great signed Moonraker poster (amongst other memorabilia) - as pricey as you would expect though!

    And your staying in Finabury Park?? I used to live in Seven Sisters, close to Manor house which is very close to FP. Hopefully we can catch up, go for a drink or something.

    Yep, actually I'll stay in the Seven Sisters Rd., right in front of the station. My friend, just send me a PM and we'll have a pint any time you want.

    I wish they'd have used Westminster station. Its stylish modern/industrial look would have fitted perfectly in a bond film.
