You can also buy your Oyster cards here or get a top up in the mornings. A word of warning though, there's usually huge queue on a Monday morning so either get it the night before or be prepared for a long wait - this has often made me late for work. I love this little newsagent's... it's always been really handy when passing through Clapham Junction.

For example today I wanted plain A4 brown envelopes, but they didn't have any, which you would assume was a necessity. The newsagents itself carries all the national and local newspapers, but doesn't have a wide selection of magazines. You are not likely to find any special interest magazines here, just your national well known ones such as Hello, and their ilk. The shop offers newspaper delievery and they are pretty efficent, you are likely to get your papers before 8am or so. This is the newsagents in Woodhatch (the village it is located in) that you are likely to go for post office or stationary needs.

I find that WH Smiths doens't have such a wide range of books available as Waterstones or Borders (there are branches of these in Lakeside or on the retail park). The stationary and art supplies tend to be quite expensive but there is a large range and they stock some beautiful photo albums and craft items. This has always been the traditional store to visit for back to school stationary and supplies!

My local Newsagent was not only the proud winner of the prestigious 'Best Newsagent' award (2006)…read moreit is also involved in the honorable struggle against the onslaught of porn in our community and has been since 1989. A huge banner decorates the cheerful front window of Hamdy's declaring "THIS IS A PORN FREE NEWSAGENT." Thank goodness for that I say. I agree with Hamdy's and have no problem with people that partake in the purchase of porn, I just don't want to witness them doing it when I buy my morning paper and orange juice. Although it is not possible to buy porn here, Hamdy's has a huge selection of other types of magazines, from fashion to fishing and everything in between. It's almost as if they are trying to encourage non porn related hobbies and I think it's all very refreshing. They also stock everything else a porn free newsagent should have: cigarettes, sweeties and Ebony cards. These are my favourite cards, they feature ebony beauties in all sorts of situations (playing pool, going to church, etc.) and say things like "You are a strong, good man, a man that doesn't walk away, Happy Birthday brother." What more could you ask from a paper shop? If your answer is porn than go buy it in Soho, because in Stoke Newington, we like to keep things nice and clean.

Hamdy's sells loads of toys and sweets and slushes... All stuff aimed at kids, why would you not be happy that they didn't litter their shelves with stuff that young eyes probably shouldn't see? I also like this place because they sell sparklers most of the year around. They're also are super friendly whenever I go in there to by magazines. They have such a huge selection too, better than any other shop in the area. Must be all that room on the shelves that are free of porn...
