Welcome to the site Dukey - look forward to seeing more of you on here !

Not sure about any places in London, though there must be. There used to be a large store in the Midlands that a lot of NFL merchandise - not sure if it is still about or not. You could also look at the NASN store as, when I used to watch it, they were also advertising a lot.
If not then the only option is to look on line and see what you can get mailed from the US - shop around as some places charge more than others for overseas postage.
usual places are:
www.vikings.com
www.domplus.com
www.nfl.com

sure people here may know of some others that may ship overseas

Skol!
