One suggestion: join at least one indoor club where you sit for the activity. That gives you the opportunity to talk at length to your table mates. The indoor clubs are a super way to make friends, get needed info about life in The Villages, and to get recommendations for services needed for your house, medical services, and so on. I’m happy to talk to you at any time! Kathleen 252-258-4151

That's so kind of you , I plan on doing that, Crafts is my thing, so I will do that.Kathleen is an Irish name, are you Irish by any chance?

Phone is 608-289-9564. Also, their son does a weeding business - $20/hr - great work ethic and results and you will not find many people who will do weeding in TV.

Thanks for that !

I really and truly dont know where to start, there is so much to do .!!! But water volleyball and pickle ball really appeal to me.I might have to rent my villa out maybe just for 3 months to a snowbird, just to cover my costs, as I still have a home in the Uk to maintain, so if anyone knows of a company that takes care of homes to part timers please let me know. I will be popping backwards and forwards regularly.Please pop by if you see the vans, I can offer you tea or coffee , us brits always have the kettle on ,lol! Thanks everyone

Welcome. I'm sure you must chuffed. We've only just purchased here ourselves (in DeSoto) so, still searching for British items locally myself (as well as the odd cricket pitch) but if I can be of assistance, do call on me. - Michael
