It’s an account managed, event organising service designed to help profess

The Handpicked Hotels brand have a number of country houses across the UK and the opportunity came up to experience Nutfield Priory Hotel & Spa. I took a direct train from London Bridge - Redhill and caught a taxi from the station to the hotel.

Last Days of Shoreditch is London's original street food market, bringing the capital's best independent nightlight to the

London transport is iconic; red buses, the red and white tube sign and carriages are known the world over. It might not always be reliable and by golly, the tube is a sweaty experience in summer, but it's such a representation of London we think it's worth celebrating. And we're not the only ones, there are countless bars, restaurants and event spaces based around our 'Planes, Trains and Automobiles' (and boats and buses...). From abandoned tube stations and carriages to museums and livery hal

What is AI? Perhaps you're thinking of HAL 9000 from 2001: A Space Odyssey, GLaDOS from Portal or Jude Law as a robot Gigalo. AI today is a lot less visible that sci-fi once imagined, it's subtle and is running in the background of our daily lives more and more. It’s any computer or app or website or device that takes actions that maximize its chance of success for a predetermined goal and gets better each time it tries, learning each time, just like us. That goal might be winning a game of che
