I don't know that part of the world that well to know where the LEGO shops
are, but I do know that LHR is very close to Windsor. You can see the runway
clearly when at the top of the park. A taxi there would probably only cost
10GBP.

Last time I was at LLW they still had soccer starter sets, but no extra
players, IIRC.

I have a brief layover in London on my way back to the US from Stockholm. • I
will be in London for about 24 hours begining on Saturday morning, June
10th.  While I was in London I am hoping to do a bit of LEGO shopping and • am
looking for some tips from the local experts.

One of the things I hope to find (although I expect to be disappointed) is • a
World Cup Starter Set and some extra players.  Is it still possible to • find
any of these anywhere?  I don't know where I will be staying although I
suspect I will stay near Heathrow since that is where I am connecting.
Also, how long does it take to get to LEGOLAND Windsor from Heathrow?

Thanks,
