Punch '13 Moons Walthamstow' in your search box ('13 Moons' on its own will take you to a shop in the US) to check out this shop's Facebook page. 13 Moons is the daughter shop of Eltham's Wicca Moon shop and well worth a visit for esoteric supplies and card readings. The shop is open Wed-Fri, usually from noon or late morning. For up to date info on these days, check their FB page as it varies. The phone lives in the shop, so if it's answered, the shop is open, or you can message via Facebook.
Oh yes, you've mentioned that to me before. Sorry I forgot. I'll add it to the post now!
