The nearest decent computer shop [1] to me is Novatech, which is near
the officially most traffic-light infested junction in the country (they
must have borrowed the planner from Southampton) and has a queue in
their returns department longer than most post offices!

[1] Actually, PC World is almost competitive on price for some things
because you can reserve items online at the online price and go and pick
them up half an hour to two days later.
