Welcome to the group :-) Sorry, I didn't spot you while I was in Oz ;-)
I don't know of any guys in York itself, but there are a few around North
Yorkshire...
I only recall there being one toy shop in York city centre, and it's part of
a chain (Toy Master I think) - you're unlikely to find discounts. However,
Yell (http://search.yell.com/search/DoSearch) retunrs 12 "TOY & GAME SHOPS"
in and around York.
Oh well, you'll just have to come along to a 'fest or two while you're here
:-) First one is on Saturday 6 April at my place - about 250 miles from you.
That's about 400Ks, but you'll have to get used to miles now ;-)
On Sunday 7 April, a bunch of us are off to LEGOLAND Windsor for their
Professional Model Making session (£69 per person) - room for stop-overs at
my place from the day before.
Just LMK if you'd like to tag along to either or both :-)

| G'day Tim, Unless anyone claims to be nearer, I might be the next closest AFOL - I live south of Yarm, which is about an hour north of you. The best selection will be the Toymaster shop in Kings Square, but it is not a cheap shop! There is at least (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jan-02, to lugnet.loc.uk)
