:D

I bought some A Level books for my bro. I rarely go to shopping centres.

It's been a while since I read any PC/Computer magazines so I went into WHSmiths and looked at some of the magazines. Many had women on the front covers, even web design magazines. This is not a recent trend. It started happening a few years ago, with the start of the "lads" magazine. I found a magazine with it's back cover facing me, I picked it up to put it the right way up. It was a "lads" magazine in the wrong section lol. I just left it and walked away.

WHSmith brings back some memories :D

There's always a crowd of people around the computing mags. I used to go there in my college days, find a vacant spot and start reading!

Computer magazines generally repeat the same information, it's not worth buying them anymore as you'll find anything you need on the internet.

Next time you want a well-placed book, check out 'The Works.' The supermarkets also usually sell their books for less. The prices on the books are just the Recommended Retail Prices and it doesn't mean you have to see them for that price only.

I don't live in London, so i'm not familiar with where you can find the shop. Here is their website though the usual wider variety of educational books don't seem to be there : (www.)"you can't post links until you reach 50 posts_www.theworks-art-books-music(contact admin if its a beneficial link)"]you can't post links until you reach 50 posts_www.theworks-art-books-music(contact admin if its a beneficial link)[/url]
