Pretty well every software shop stocks ST stuff (the ST is the most popular 16 bit micro in the UK at the mo.). I know for a fact that there are at least 10 shops in the Tottenham Court Road area (including Silica Shop/Systems and the Virgin Games Store)! Have fun with your ST, and have a nice trip!

Note that as the last time I was in London (for the Atari User Show) Virgin Games Store had stopped stocking computer games. They had been moved to a spot in the Virgin Megastore on Oxford Street nearer Tottenham Court Road. It also looked like the range they stocked had gotten smaller, but maybe that's just because the Megastore is so much bigger than the Games Store. The advantage to the move is that it is MUCH easier to find the Megastore than the Games Store. The disadvantage is that once you're in the Megastore, it's painfully difficult to find the computer games bit. Silica Shop is also tricky to find. It's upstairs in a building named 'Lion House', at 227 Tottenham Court Road. Go in the main door, and up the (probably not-running) escalator.
