Popped down to my local Photo Optix earlier, sign on the door that it's gone
into administration, see their website...

have to try and track it down!

Latest: All the Photo Optix shops have been permanently closed except
two in London (Westminster and Chelsea). The Administrators are
trying to negotiate a sale of those two stores:

Further update: Three branches of the original Photo Optix chain were
taken over by a former director several months ago and are now trading
as "Reflex Cameras". There is one in Aylesbury and one in Welwyn
Garden City.

I understand there was to be a third store but it proved unviable.
