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…
