Sounds like you were in luck, Saucepan Man. I was in Foyles myself yesterday on a thoroughly self-indulgent shopping spree, which has furnished me with the three-volume hardback set of the Histories, a copy of the Letters, Roverandom and Carpenter's Tolkien biography, not to mention a large map of Beleriand and some C.S. Lewis. I too noted the absence of the Atlas, but there were too many people in our company for me to do any further browsing, and we had gone to London with a very different purpose than to buy books: we were supposed to be looking for outfits for my friend's Tudor-themed wedding. Still, we saw some good books and a nice five-string Ibanez bass guitar, so it wasn't a total write-off. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
