Double Trouble

The Thomas brothers in Times Square

Mom reckons now that Jason is here, the two of us spell double trouble. I dunno what she’s talking about but – we were nothing but the greatest, nicest, most well behavest kids that you ever could have wished for. I’m sure that there’ll be a comment here by tomorrow from Dad which whole-heartedly agrees with that statement.

No visit to New York is complete without some time in Times Square, so last night we headed over with our cameras and blended with the tourists. Though I’ve been there a number of times now, it never ceases to amaze me. There’s actually a law that says that if your business is in Times Square, you have to have a certain percentage of neon around your building – I guess the closer you are to the heart of Times Square, the more neon you need. I call this the “bling law”. Even the NYPD and the subway station get into it!

It ended up being a pretty late night, so everyone looked a bit worse for wear this morning. Jason and Michelle were still in bed when I left for work! I don’t know what adventures they’ll get up to today; but don’t forget to read about the rest of their holiday on Jason’s blog. He even has a competition running at the moment, so get your entries in!

You are two of the most wonderful guys in the world, I’m sure your mom knows that deep down.
