(Sorry if this isn't specifically on the subject of Picaxe but I don't know where else to turn to.)
Does anyone know if there are any good electronic component retailers in/near London where you can browse around and buy things you didn't know you wanted when you walked in?
In the 'good old days' I used to like to travel up to the Edgware Road where there were lots of shops specialising in electronics. Now there seems to be only Henry's and judging from my last visit, when they were very helpful, they nevertheless appear to be leaning more towards security and audio.
I know there are lots of Maplin outlets around but I just wondered if I could try anywhere else. Perhaps there is a directory somewhere on the Internet for independent electronics shops but every time I do a search it comes up with millions of HiFi shops.
Can anyone help
