Traditional toy shops are hard to find, however if you make a trip to London dont forget to call in at Hamleys. There arent many toy shops that started before 1760!
Hamleys:
“Hamleys, iconic flagship store, has developed an international reputation for its magical, atmosphere, choice of products and spectacular window displays.
When William Hamley first opened a toy shop in London, Westminster Bridge had just opened to traffic – horses and carts. Even gas lights would not illuminate the citys streets for another half a century. The year was 1760, but William Hamley, a Cornishman from Bodmin, was not put off.
He filled his cramped Holborn shop with every toy he could find; rag dolls and tin soldiers, hoops and wooden horses, because he wanted the finest toy shop in the world. He even called it the Noahs Ark.
So when Henry Charles Harrod opened a small grocers in Knightsbridge in 1849, Hamleys was already a vastly successful Joy Emporium. To celebrate, in 1881, William Hamleys grandsons opened a new branch in Regent Street, not far from Piccadilly Circus. Hamleys was here 11 years before Eros.
Over the years Hamleys has developed an international reputation for choice, quality and innovation. The magical flagship store on Regent Street has over 7 floors packed full of toys and games, with live and interactive demonstrations.
Today, Hamleys is an internationally recognised toy retailer with ambitious plans to further grow the brand. The Hamleys Own collection, a branded range of toys and games will continue the tradition of the finest toys in the world. With plans for international stores and the launch of an exciting, new user friendly website will enable Hamleys magic to be delivered throughout the world”.

And heres another interesting quote which tells quite a lot: “Gambling – particularly on sporting events – is ingrained in our culture. You can find references to it by historians throughout the ages as far back as Herodotus, Western cultures Father of History. The English language is peppered with phrases we use without thinking about which stem from our love of gambling – you bet, I bet you are, put your money where your mouth is.
A trusted brand
In earlier times most gambling was done behind closed doors. When William Hill founded the company in 1934, the industry had no governing body, and bookies were not even legally obliged to pay a customers winning bet. This, of course, was a great business opportunity: William Hill built a reputation on being knowledgeable, honest and trustworthy. The company started out as a postal / telephone betting service where a punter would send a bet with a cheque weeks in advance of an event.
New on the high street
In 1961, betting shops became legal, with William Hill joining the market in 1966. Shops were heavily regulated, however, to encourage people not to loiter. It was during this period that they got something of a reputation for being dens of iniquity with their blacked-out, closed windows, and murky, smoky atmosphere. With the arrival of television, however, betting became more of a leisure activity, with people spending time in betting shops to watch the races or the football. When the UKs National Lottery began in 1994, placing a bet became a much more socially acceptable activity. As legislation changed, shops became bigger, lighter, and air conditioned, and started to include games as well as betting.
Betting goes online
1998 was an important year for William Hill, when we became the first in the industry to launch an online betting facility, our Sportsbook. The internet has changed the face of the industry, bringing in new, younger punters for a range of gambling and gaming activities, as well as providing an easy way to place a bet. Some things dont change though – our reputation for honesty and integrity and our exceptional customer service are as important to todays punters as they were in the days of placing a bet by putting a cheque in the post”.
