Can't-Miss model stores in the UK

If your going to be in London, then you might want to pop into the Hannants branch in Colindale. Can't point you to any cant's miss models shops, in east Anglia they are a bit thin on the ground. But if your any where near Norwich, there is a toy shop called langleys which used to have a good selection, though its been a few years since i have been in.

If you find yourself in Nottingham, a visit to Warhammer World would be well worth it. 

I think the ultimate UK hobby shop is at Telford - but they are only open two days a year, in November! 

The vendor's area at the IPMS UK Nationals at Telford blew my mind.  It was too much to take in all at once. I had to cut out early on the second day and lie down in the hotel room and watch "Dr. Who".

Never mind the hobby shops, go to the wonderful museums instead!

Take a trip to Japan.every other city block has a model hobby shop.
