So we've got a website! Er...why have we got a website? Well... the whole Myspace 'please listen to us, we think you're fab...' wears a bit thin after a while. Oh so cynical but what the hell. So a website seems to show a little more willing than that (if only a little). Albertsband.com was free so we bought it ... perhaps that's all there is to it. It's not like we needed a way of handling all the fan mail, or letting the world know about our numerous tours and back catalog. But, if you're in a band with friends, friends you've known...

Finding an Exclusive Introduction Agency in London There are dating agencies and there are Bespoke matchmaking agencies but if you're one of the beautiful people then you're going to need something a bit special, a Luxury Introduction Agency or (and this sounds awful) a Partner Headhunting Agency! Up until a few weeks ago I'd never even heard of Professional Introduction Organizations, I thought that rich people just found it easy to find partners because, well they're rich! But it seems that people are so busy earning the money...

Riverhill Himalayan Gardens my absolute Favorite Place to Visit in Sevenoaks If you thought you've tried all the best days out in Kent think again and try Riverhill Himalayan Gardens near Sevenoaks. It is a fantastic place for a family day out. Riverhill Gardens and house has been home to the Rogers Family for over 160 years and boasts some of the best views and most beautiful flowers and plants in Kent. The house itself is not open to the public as it is still a family home but that is not the main attraction of this charming day out....

Childhood should be Childish! I grew up in the 1970's and 80's, well actually that's not true. It would be more accurate to say that I did not grow up during that time, I had a very long and very childish childhood and I'm a great deal better for it. When did childhood change? Where did it go? Has it changed so much or are we merely more aware of the world than we were back then and seeing all the bad stuff we lose sight of the good things about children in the UK? I enjoyed being silly, climbing trees, bike rides, Bagpuss,...

One Sevenoaks Hairdresser for every 100 residents! Sevenoaks Hairdressers proliferate like no other business in the town. The population of Sevenoaks is roughly 18,500 people. It is a safe bet that most of those people have hair (apologies to those who do not) and of those people most are likely to want it cut from time to time, probably by someone else namely a hairdresser or barber. Let us say for the sake of argument that the average price of a haircut is around £25, taking into account that female haircutting is vastly more expensive...

Did You Find Some Money Today? It occurred to me on the way home from work that I'm one of those people who finds money. I spend it much faster of course but there you go. I'm not talking about the odd fifty pence either, I once found close to eighty pounds in four or five locations on a night out in London. But I wonder how much of the world's GDP is lost every day? Down the back of the sofa, on the beach, in the gutter or the back of a taxi and in addition to that, how much of it is found by other people? Who cares? You'd...

Let Me Introduce Myself ... Hi, I'm Tom Radford Welcome to Tom-Radford.com. This is the first blog of my new site and I'm writing it by way of an introduction to myself and everything I do.
