Hi, there, my name is Hilary Thomson too, I happend to come across your website, while being board at work, to see what came up if I put my name in search.....yeah, there's not much to do at the moment. Well, I found this site...and I'm from Newfoundland, looking at these pictures made me miss it soooo much, I haven't met many people with my name let alone first and last..I just thought it was kind of funny.
You didn't happen to go to Concordia University in Montreal.....reason being I would sign out equipment from the audio visual department there and would often be mistaken for a Hilary Thomson in Communications...
Any way I just thought it was kind of funny to find someone with the same name spelling and all and who has been in Newfoundland.
Great Website by the way
have a great day!!
Hilary
