It's the Jack Horner on Tottenham court road

That means you can do a bit of window shopping beforehand :)

Yes walking distance I think about a mile. 

The one way system is the wrong way getting there so no buses but you
can get a tube.

I wouldn't get on a bus unless you paid me. A lot. Like, enough to hire 
my own personal body guart for the duration of the trip. :-P

Euston Station on the other hand is trivial to reach.

Wait... Goodie Street? Didn't somebody recently say there's a good PC 
shop there?

Probably, it is world famous in London. A fortnight ago I bought my
laptop there.

I'm free; I assume that's Saturday 12th April.
BTW Yoyo tech (I think I mentioned it to St. when he was talking cases)
is just up the road in Windmill St. Ditto CEX (on TCR) and of course
(makes sign of warding) PCW*rld

Don't mention Windmill St. It still has a bad name in the provinces :)

     I was 'talking' cases?? Heh, yeah, you're right, I did with Gail & co. 
:)

     Hey, listen, I really hope you all have a great time on the 12th, 
(especially you Andrew!) but I don't think I'll be able to make it then. 
Things have changed dramatically for me recently, and yes, I need a BIG 
break too. So, can we all meet up around (possibly) the 24th? I need to 
speak to my sister (lives not far from Stephen iirc), because she takes in 
lodgers and when I last spoke to her, she doesn't  know when the French 
couple are staying (they haven't made their minds up yet).

Works for me. Just post or mail nearer the time. I look forward to
meeting you.
