Hmmm.....no, but I can tell you that the Hippodrome is a lot of fun! They have awesome bartenders there, like in the movie "Cocktail." I did a lot of club hopping there, not stamp shopping! Blame it on my fun and fancy free youth.....I did do some clothes and shoe shopping there too, but I can't even get one of the dresses I bought there around my leg, much less around my body anymore....
London! I need to go with you...so I can check on my friends on Coronation Street and in Wolford (these are from Coronation Street and Eastenders...UK Soap Operas!!). LOL
Lucky you!!

Hmm you know I didnt even think about international stamp shops. I'm planning a European vacation with a friend for next spring. I'll have to consider a small stamp budget for that trip too.

A few months ago I bought a paper craft magazine from the UK. I bought it at Books A Million. It was about $12 but I bet if you found one, you would find ads for stores that you would like. The title is Crafts Beautiful and any other book store could probably order one for you if you have time. It is a great magazine.

Thanks for your help, everyone. I may have room for one of you in my empty suitcase. But, once I fill it with the fun stuff I buy on vacation, you may not have a ride home.
Looks like Blade Rubber Stamps Store is near Covent Garden. I loved Covent Garden! Lots of great shops and outdoor markets. I believe the Doc Martin store is that area (My husband & son bought shoes there). You'll have to go into the Lush (bath & body) store there too. Great stuff!
While in London, you might fly and spend a weekend in Paris. You can find weekend getaways for next to nothing!
Also visit www.artbasehornchurch.co.uk for scrapbooking stuff - it's in Essex which might not be far, depending on which part of London you're staying in.
Otherwise, have never been to London looking for stamp stores! Stamping is still in the foetal stages in England so go and spread the word!
