We have the name tags so will be there. Probably Nancy will not attend as we expect our son and his brood to arrive from Atlanta that afternoon but I will be there.

Will be looking for someone to host in January as we will be out of town.

And where in Illinois are you? Parts of IL are expecting lots of snow!

[Bill-n-Brillo]

If you've never attended one of the gatherings at Crispers restaurant, carve out some time tomorrow and stop by. It's a good way to put some member names with the faces and to meet some great people!

3551 Wedgewood Lane, The Villages 32162 in the Southern Trace Plaza - NE corner of CR101 and 466.

Sandy and I are planning to attend.

Bill - FYI at the bottom of the page where all the stats are - the Crisper is listed to be held on 12/20.

Not sure which is correct - I would imagine on Friday!

Your righ,t it is confusing but the TOTV lunchone is on Friday the 21st.

Click on the calendar tab and it's listed there.

Must be another meeting than TOTV.

[Trish Crocker]

I would, but the world is ending. If by some chance it doesn't, we will be at the next one! If it does, I'm gonna be really p****d...just put our deposit down!

I think I can solve this mystery. A while back, someone complained that they weren't given enough advance notice about the Crispers lunch, so a member voluntarily posted the reminder for a day before the lunch. I saw this months ago and it was confusing, but when I clicked on it, it says "reminder tomorrow..." I also think this is very confusing and would like to ask Admins to remove it, if they agree. I understand what the intent was but it is confusing.

I will try to make the lunch tomorrow, after I have a Christmas luncheon. Hope to see you folks there.

[shcisamax]

I am now totally confused. COULD SOMEONE JUST WRITE IN CAPITAL LETTERS WHICH DAY AND AT WHAT TIME IS THE REAL CRISPER'S LUNCHEON.

Hoping to go.

[skyguy79]

Can someone fill me in on where these stats are where it says the 20th? I've looked where the stats are and found on meeting notice there. I've also checked the following link which is the remined page when you click the link on the calender for the meeting. Nothing different there either from what I've seen for a long time now! :confused:

Thank you 2bntv but I think I said in capital letters :)

And where in Illinois are you? Parts of IL are expecting lots of snow!

WE ARE IN SPRINGFIELD-CENTRAL ILLINOIS. EXPECTING 2 INCHES THIS AFTERNOON WITH 40-50 mph WINDS. JUST A FEW MILES NORTH IT IS MUCH WORSE. LEAVING FOR TV ON DECEMBER 26th AND WE CAN'T WAIT!

NW suburbs of Chicago -- 2 to 5 inches of snow tonight; this will be our first snowfall this winter, so we have been spared so far. 50 mph wind gusts tonight, so blowing and drifting snow will be a problem tonight. Right now it is 47 degrees and raining. Eastern Iowa where my Dad lives -- 12 inches of snow by tonight. And I am supposed to drive to Iowa tomorrow for Christmas. Wish I could move my extended family down to TV for the next week...

I was looking at CNN reports and it looks like a pretty bad to impossible drive to Iowa. I hope you will be careful and or reconsider this trip. It sounds like an awfully long way to go in bad weather.

Please be careful as there are many accidents reported.

Thank you for your concern. I just talked to my Dad on the phone. I am now leaving for Iowa on Saturday instead. It is supposed to be done snowing in eastern Iowa by 8:00 pm tonight, but I didn't want to chance blowing and drifting snow on the roads tomorrow as it is still supposed to be windy on Friday. If anyone has traveled on two lane hilly and twisty Highway 20 in northwestern Illinois in bad weather, it is not a lot of fun.

[eweissenbach]

We had planned to be there, but given the bad weather here :cold: , and the end of the world and all :eek: , we are not going to make the 1200 mile drive. Hope to be there the 3rd Friday of February, provided of course that there is still a there there. :D:

The world better not end tomorrow as I have not yet attained my goal of becoming a frog someday!

[rubicon]

I had good intentions of droping by however, I am picking up my daughter at the airport while you folks will be socializing

[Bruiser1]

Anybody going?

Bill :)

I'll be there.:coolsmiley:

[jimbo2012]

I just arrived in NY for Christmas after a lovely 1100 mile ride :ohdear:

Going back to TV in a week, see you at the Jan get together...

[tainsley]

Looking forward to seeing everyone!

[Villager Dude]

Looking forward to seeing everyone!

I plan to be there do I need to RSVP to anyone ?

Thanks

I'm banking on the fact that there will still be a here here. See you in February!

[Barefoot]

[QUOTE=Villager Dude;597407]I plan to be there do I need to RSVP to anyone ? [QUOTE]

No RRSP required. It is very informal. Just show up, grab a drink or something to eat, there is usually someone with name tags. The TOTV December luncheons are sometimes sparsely attended, but it sounds as if there are quite a few people turning out for this one.

[CFrance]

I am planning on being there in February. We're leaving Saturday for two weeks, and delivering dog and bird to their various sitters tomorrow, and this has been a very hectic week, so I will not make it tomorrow.

Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays to all! See you in Feb.

[CaptJohn]

I presume not many showed up since there has not been a report or pictures here.
Anyone who was there care to fill us in?
Did the world end for those who showed up? :laugh:

[Bill-n-Brillo]

Sandy and I were there. I'd guess there were probably about 12 or so people who attended. Not sure if any pics were taken. Popcorn was made available........ :D

There should be a sign-in list floating around with the member names of those who were there. Not sure who wound up with it.

AND........even though we didn't attend, Admin picked up the tab for anyone who wanted food and/or a beverage! Thanks, Admin!

Bill :)

There were wonderful folks there;
Bill-n-Brillo, Shesamax, Villages Dude and Villages Bruiser and Swrinfla, and CQuick and Frank7, and Virtual Geezer and John Heydt and two fellows who only gave their REALLY name and Helene.

And there was an adorable dog who was in the car who belongs to Shesamax and I walked right outa there and forgot to give him a pat.

[cquick]

I was there and it was great to see everyone!

AND I ordered a sandwich just to be totally surprised to find that KEN was paying for everyone!

THANKS KEN!

[TOTV Team]

Compliments of Talk of The Villages! Thanks to everyone on TOTV!

[Bill-n-Brillo]

:BigApplause:Nice Reporting Gracie!

[shcisamax]

Yes, Gracie, Duncan did mention he missed you too. But he was definitely most interested in the popcorn when I got in the car.
