What’s the best view in London? Even if you live in London, you can go weeks or months without really seeing it. Your eyes can see to a level of quality and detail that’s equivalent a 576-megapixel camera. But when caught up in the mix of all the hustle and bustle, all that power can be dedicated solely to navigating tourists and dodging traffic. Not to mention chuggers and cyclists. And even if you’re just visiting for the weekend, your…

Don’t like the tube or buses? Alternative ways to get to us
Don’t like the tube or buses? Alternative ways to get to us Clients come to us from every part of London, every county in England, every country in Europe, and every continent in the world. And when they arrive, whether by air or road, from Brighton or Bangladesh, it can be somewhat of a shock to the system.

What’s it like working in and around Harley Street
What’s it like working in and around Harley Street For centuries, the closest most people got to Harley Street was knowing the name of an aristocrat, celebrity, or some other well-to-do person who’d allegedly received treatment there.

Visit us on Facebook You wouldn’t think it, but working as a freelancer there are many times I miss being in a big office and working under the iron thumb of a boss. For one, I wouldn’t suddenly decide to take an extended lunch break when I have a deadline to meet the next morning; they also probably wouldn’t stand for my clothes rack/kitchen counter/desk either.

Is it worth travelling to London for Laser Eye Surgery if you live in Leeds? Getting from Leeds to London used to be an awkward affair that took an age to plan and even longer to arrive. Today within less than two and a half hours you can be in the nation’s capital, sipping a hot latte down by the Thames or exploring the depths of The British Museum, all for the cost of a nice lunch in Leeds (well, maybe…
A Lifetime Of Glasses Or Laser Eye Surgery?
A Lifetime Of Glasses Or Laser Eye Surgery? A childhood friend of my was christened early by his peers with the name of ‘foggy’, simply because his glasses would always fog up when the temperature suddenly changed. It’s a silly story, but it touches on an important point that is part of a much larger problem for the frequent glasses wearer. Waking up to a blurry alarm clock, struggling to find where you placed them last, breaking a lens, going…
