New York > Philadelphia > LA

On March 3, 2010, in Blog, by Adrian

Well, I can now say that I’ve been to Philadelphia. Why you ask? Because we weren’t going to spend double for a direct flight to LA, of course! Plus, I’ve always wanted to go to Philadelphia. They do good cheese there. Hehe. Well, anyway, right now we’re in the Taxi on the way to Hollywood. Today was a long day of traveling. We’ve got an exciting week ahead of us. We’re meeting up with Stephen Fry, a TV Producer and a big Hollywood Movie Producer! To add to that, there are a lot more press bookings underway! Our AP story just keeps spreading and we’ve been getting lots of requests. This morning (if you were in Times Square) we were the idiots waving signs around saying “Be A Movie Producer” and a banner reading “JUDE LAW SAYS BUYACREDIT.COM”. A reporter and photographer from a NY paper met us there for some photos and an interview. It was a lot of fun and it’ll be great to see how the article turns out.

After that we were straight in a cab to the airport. Mind you, we had to find a Taxi Rank first. Last time we tried to hail a cab in New York it took 45 minutes. We’re just THAT bad at it. :( . Maybe the British are just too polite when it comes to striding into the middle of the road, shoving your hand in the air and shouting “TAXI!”.

We were at the airport soon after and in Philadelphia before we knew it. Very strange going on a 30 minute flight. Very strange. We did have to wait a while at the Philadelphia airport though, and the only entertainment was a webcam:

The flight to LA was looonnggg. Felt like we were going back home over the Atlantic. It’s funny how massive America is and how now, it feels like we’re in a totally different world. I don’t really know what to expect from Hollywood in daylight. We want to see the sign, the Walk of Fame and all that touristy stuff…but we’re told it’s a lot harder to get around than Manhattan and London.

Tomorrow there should be some more buycredit.com press coming out, and we should be meeting up with the TV Producer who has some very exciting propositions. It’s funny that the only person we know out here is Stephen Fry. He’s sort of looking after us :) . Fellow Britons in a foreign land.

Anyway…to the motel to sleep!

Sunday in New York…

On February 28, 2010, in Blog, by Adrian

Today we’ve had another tourist day. We didn’t know it was such a long walk from Times Square to the financial district, but we got there in the end. One thing I’m really liking about New York is the abundance of Starbucks. If you feel like coffee…coffee is there :) . It’s all very very different to London though. Much harder to get lost as everything is a grid; no twisty roads. Even so, we’re still getting lost.

We’ve noticed that people are starting to paste up posters of Jude Law’s new film REPO MEN, which is coming out soon I think. Another film we really want to see is Alice In Wonderland with STEPHEN as the Chesire Cat :) . There’s posters of it EVERYWHERE here.

Annywaayy, tonight we might see a film and then tomorrow we’re back off pause and getting ready to do as much as we can for another week. At some time we’re flying to LA, although timings are completely unknown at the moment. We’re really looking forward to going to see Stephen over there and are looking forward to some warm weather too! – New York is too cold. And we’re from London!!!

Nearly time for something to eat. McDonalds, Burger King or Dunkin’ Donuts? Hmmmm.

Marshmallow Dreamcake – FOUND!

On February 27, 2010, in Blog, by Adrian

We found the Starbucks Dreamcake/bar after going into nearly every Starbucks in Manhattan. Yum yum yum. In this picture, Ben is blissfully unaware that he left his wallet in the shop. Of course the Marshmallow Dreamcake is far more important, but don’t worry, he got it back in the end with BOTH dollars inside!

Note the change of style – Ben bought a Trilby so now he looks very – um – what era is it? I’ve got a cap/thingy. Probably less fashionable but it keeps me dry. It is mainly because we both need haircuts and look silly without hats. Maybe we look silly with the hats as well?….hmmmm.

Annyyywaaayy. Enough of this aimless talk. I forgot to thank JUDE and STEPHEN publicly for their support. They have made this trip and this press possible, so we’re so so so so so so grateful. Three other people, without whom we would not be here are Phillip Schofield, Joanna Lumley and Lynda Bellingham who have financially sponsored the trip. But this is just the beginning. The AP article is just the start of the press campaign so we’re really looking forward to seeing what Monday brings.

Tomorrow, though, it’s more tourist stuff…

New York

On February 27, 2010, in Blog, by Adrian

Well, we’re in New York. It is cold and wet but we’re loving it. Today we ventured out of the hotel room for a bit, walked up to Times Square and Central Park and took some photos. We look really tired. I mean really tired. Sleep hasn’t been on the top of the agenda. We did an interview with The Associated Press during the week which got released yesterday alongside Jude’s support video. The response has been incredible, and we’ve been refreshing google kicking ourselves. CBS, NBC, Huffington Post, New York Times, Yahoo News – surely not!??!

Here’s just some of them:

It is so so exciting and it’s still spreading across the news :) . Hopefully more will come of it. We are planning to fly to LA sometime next week to see Stephen and to meet a TV producer out there. Maybe some press as well, who knows?

Right now we’re all sitting in the hotel room, watching TV, trying to relax and unwind. Me and Ben had a very very stressful morning. Let me explain; there’s a Starbucks cake here called a “Marshmallow Dreamcake” (sounds good doesn’t it?) well, anyway, we have made it our personal life-long mission to find this elusive cake. We saw it last time – and now it’s gone!!! How can there be so many Starbucks’ and so little Marshmallow Dreamcakes? :( .

Seeing as it is Saturday, we reckon we’ll do some touristy stuff. I’ll keep you informed RE the Dreamcake.
