Happy Anniversary to me!

  In a few weeks’ time, I will have been working in Whetstone High Road for 16 years.  During that time I’ve worked in different buildings and for different companies, but always in the same road.    There are many things about the area that I like.  It’s far enough out of central London so […]

Toilet or not toilet – that is the question!

Some of you may have seen that I was out celebrating this week – given that I'm often seen with a glass in my hand, you may not have realised that I had a good reason for it this time!  So I'm pleased to report that we had a big success in Court and we're […]

They think it’s all over…

The wife of a French Premier League footballer earning around £1 million a year blew the whistle on their marriage after only 19 months. With their young child and an eye watering income, the family lived a lavish lifestyle, along with the stereotypical Miami Beach hut. Unfortunately with little other investments and an outrageous amount […]

Turning the Tables on Table Turning

I've noticed a growing trend recently in the number of restaurants limiting how long you can have the table for.  In fact, it seems that the more expensive and exclusive the restaurant, the more adamant they are about how soon you have to be out.  After all, when was the last time you heard of […]
