What is your favourite button shop?

The post about the amazing Knoppen Winkle (Button Shop) in Amsterdam made me wonder where all you Button Floozies get your kicks in the UK.
Which shops are worth visiting , who has the best selection of buttons to fondle and drool over?
I'm talking proper bricks and mortar shops, internet shopping is great, but I want to actually smell those buttons!

I mostly tend to buy my buttons from charity shops but there is a fantastic family run shop called "Duttons for Buttons" based up in Yorkshire, which supposedly have the largest collection of buttons in Europe! I wrote a post on them: http://bonkersaboutbuttons1.blogspot.com/2010/07/duttons-for-buttons.html
We don't really have any great crafting shops in our village, If I want something special I have to travel into Monmouth where there is a great gift/craft shop. They have a reasonable collection of buttons. I tend now to brows ebay and buy them as and when I see somthing I like. A bit hit and miss at times but a quick and simple solution
