Watkins bookshop, eh ? If I happen to be in that area in the near future, I'll pop in !

I've never heard of Watkins and I've lived in London for ooohhh, at least that many years, if not more.
Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
Mr Benn - I can nearly bring the theme tune to mind when I think of him. What a star!

Hi, See: http://www.watkinsbooks.com/

Hi Stephen,
This is a nice thread! [:)] What a nice experience you had! The Watkins bookstore and Esoteric centre sounds like a wonderful place to explore. Those two books (The Rock of Truth [hope you like it] and The Kybalion are a couple of favorites).
Colleen and I hope to make a return visit to the UK next spring (last visit was October of 2000). We did often take the 'tube' while in London, and I see where Watkins has a map, so next time we'll be sure to pay the store a visit. [;)]
All the best,
Nick
Stephen
Many thanks for the link. I'm really excited to go and visit now! I wish I'd known about it many months ago.
Ah well, better late than ever.

Hi all,
Just got 2nd hand copy of the 'The Rock of Truth'(a nice hard back impression from the late 60's), and a mint copy of the Kybalion at Watkins book shop near Leicester Square, London today. I drifted in the adjoining Esoteric centre, and nonchalantly asked one of the delightful female shop assistants about psychic consultations etc, and enjoy a few moments just general banter (Irish for chit chat) Anyhow I was flirting outrageously as is my wont (how disgraceful) [:I]
As I was leaving the store I could not help but notice that one of the psychics (as advertised on flyers on shop notice board), had started a Tarot style consultation behind a closed curtain with a lady client... almost at the same moment I felt a rush of power to my left side, and I realised the it was one of the co-workers assisting this lady! I left the shop puzzled as to the meaning of the spirit interaction with myself - feeling somewhat like a Mr Benn having passing through the door of proverbial store in the 1960's UK children's TV animation series. Strange how the Astral like experiences of Mr Benn reminds one of some of the characters on a little forum we all know and love!
I pondered this encounter on my escape out of London, and then as drove within a mile's limit of home I felt a gentle touch on my cheek... as if to say wait to you see... [;)]
I log onto the site and while browsing trough Watkins review (their periodical) - lo and behold there is a picture of the very lady psychic from my little afternoon sojourn. It transpires she has produced a book entitled 'The Magic Bookshop'. I'll not reproduce the review here, but needless to say it as an esoteric novel based on the style of Dion Fortune.
The author's name is Kala Trobe( http://www.witchguide.com/ ), and the book is published by Llewellyn. It seems Spirit are now seeking to advertise their wares. Well they are going to have to pay commission next. (he he)
I could have kicked myself... you just got to love their sense of humour. [:o)]
Anyhow enjoy and enough nonsense for now,
Stephen [:)]
P.S. Nick nice one suggesting Mr Findlay's famous book [;)].... P.P.S For anyone ancient enough to remember see: - http://www.toonhound.com/mrbenn.htm, or even scarier http://www.mrbenn.co.uk/main.html ... oh boy [:o)]
