[QUOTE="Plane Sailing, post: 3456104, member: 114"] Quoted and bolded for truth. Playin' Games is on a street right opposite the British Museum main entrance and is an excellent games store, with a wide range of stuff you can browse through. Orcs nest seal everything in plastic bags, so you can't really browse there. Forbidden Planet has a huge magazines area (it is their main stock in trade), but a tiny RPG area. Don't go there for RPG goodness! I work in central london and zip around it a lot. Most of the advice you've been given here is for long term visits; you are only here for 4 days so it probably won't be necessary. I wouldn't get an AtoZ for just 4 days unless you are going to be doing a lot of travelling by yourself. Are your days free, or have you got a lot of stuff scheduled by the trip organisers? To get an idea about where to find 'playin games', go to maps.google.co.uk and search for 'Royal National Hotel'. This is on Bedford Way. Go south to Bloomsbury square, and then out of the bottom corner at montague street, then turn right into Great Russell Street. Playin Games is on Museum Street which is then the second on the left (drag the map upwards to see it) Is there anything else you'd like to know about? (memorable museums or monuments, types of food you like eating? [/QUOTE]
