I heard about TOTV from Janices aunt, Mary, when we were down for our lot signing. I went back home and made the first post on the above date. And now, exactly one year later on June 3, 2013 we were at 392 pages with 3911 posts. I told Janice when I started the thread that I would be thrilled if I got 10 replies and look where we are now! New and caring neighbors, best friends, golfing foursomes, GillyBrations, driveway parties, holiday parties, impromptu lanai visits, etc. I am just amazed at everything that has happened. I am so grateful for all of you (whether I know you or not) for making this neighborhood what it has become. Our "cast of characters" and the related high-jinks associated with the cast has made this a really, really fun place to live.

You guys are the greatest.


You and the Lady Mayoress should be very proud, as without a doubt, this thread has meant that many newcomers to our neighbourhood, already felt they knew many of their neighbours, before they even met them.

Much of the success of our fantastic neighbourhood, very definitely lies with the fact that you guys started this thread, which has been read over 170,000 times - Wow.

We are sure that many Gillylanders do the same as us, which is, use this thread to keep track of their friends and neighbours when we are away from TV - Your Worship, you most definitely deserve your title.

Right that's enough of the serious talk, now what prank can we get up to next, Mmmm
