Hi Donna Pendergast and Sally Canna. Hope I spelled your names correctly. It was great to have met you on phone, but look forward to meeting you and your husbands in person. Please feel free to come to the golf meeting at our home on Thursday, at 7:00. It is a great way to meet people to golf with and become friends with.

We look forward to meeting you soon. Gayle Roberts

We have had to 'work' down in London for the last couple of days, what a shock to the system, well when we say 'work', all we had to do was meet and great a few guests to our companies Trade Show, but being on our feet all day and we were whacked out!

Back into retirement mode now and planning the next trip out to the Golf Course.

We stayed up the other night and raised a glass to all our friends meeting at the Gillybration at Evans Prairie, when we say friends we mean all our old ones and all the new ones we have yet to meet - can't wait to get back to TV and get back into the new expanded Golf Team.

See you all again soon

Glad to hear from you. Did you finally get to golf? I hope so. We want to see some scars on those clubs! We think of you both and Millie often and hope you are doing well and cant wait until you return. I heaerd sometime in September? Talk to you later.

Andy & Wendy first need to get thru customs in NY........not as easy as FL.

When the computers find all the pranks he pulled here.....well they may just send him back to the UK.

Also I heard there was an outstanding warrant something about an illegal brewery.....but that may include Rusty as well.

Wendy & Millie should be ok

Not so fast . . . Remember the crime scene in front of my house the day we closed?

You don't think his involvement with what took place will have an impact on his getting back into the US??

By the way he had his own labels with his own name on his beer so I think he'll get away with his Brewery problems.

The Mayor (Rusty) on the other hand, may get nailed for holding the chemicals and not being on the Beer label unless he has changed his name to "BONNY SIR JOHNNY". He talks "West Virginian" and not funny enough to get away with the brewery problems that exist in Gilchrist.

[jimbo2012]

yea, he talks "west virginian" Andy talks the Kings English can't understand a word, I think Millie can bark words clearer.

I also forgot the rumor that he was in the witness protection program his real name is "Andy Sir Johnny the 3rd" related on a 4th level to the Queen.

I may need the Mayor to wire me some funds into NY to have for a posting a bond just in case his goose is cooked upon arrival.

I was only able to stay for 2 weeks to accept delivery of the boxes we had shipped from up north. Still, it was good to see everyone and get in a few rounds of golf. Unfortunately, Andy, Wendy, Carol, Dave & Sue were all away so I didn't get to see them this trip.

While it has been great here, and I hate to leave, it will be good to see my better half back home. She has been taking care of things since we moved from central Jersey to our place at the shore. She has also had her hands full with housebreaking and training the new puppy.

Hope to see everyone when I stop down for a short visit at the end of July. I've been told in no uncertain terms that I am not allowed back unless Ann Marie comes with me.

It's so sad when you leave, but look on the bright side, you will be seeing Ann Marie again soon.

Sadly we won't see you in July either as we don't get back until September.

Although having 3 months in Blighty gives us a chance to think up some more pranks for the neighbourhood without the distraction of TV social life.

Have a safe trip home and give Ann Marie a hug from us and Millie says Hi to the new Puppy.

Yes, we did indeed get to play with our new clubs, I continued to develop my skill at Hooking and Slicing, whilst Her Ladyship continued to wipe the floor with me! .

Looking forward to seeing you again soon.

Pranks? Pranks? We are totally innocent of all charges and we have it on good authority that people of our upstanding character are most welcome in the US - otherwise how would you guys get to stay here?

We checked the liquor license laws before we brewed and as long as it is less that 5% proof, there isn't a problem - ours is only 4.99% (honest).

Her Ladyship and Millie both say that they will 'Stand by their man' as the song says.

Wait a minute, wait a minute, the crime scene was all a big misunderstanding.

How were we to know that the two 'bodies' laying on the floor, were just two drunken oafs celebrating A4, Cathy and Mum moving into the neighbourhood at last?

All we wanted was for you guys to be safe, for all we knew the 'perps' were still in your new home - even Chief Rose advised us that from the location of the bullet cases, the 'perps' had stood near your front door when the shots were fired.

We never dreamed that the workmen would turn up and refuse to cross past the crime tape - just glad it turned our ok and everyone was safe.

Don't worry Jimbo, we have enrolled on a 'Colonial English for Intrepid Travellers' evening course for preparation for when we get back.

'goose is cooked'? We didn't realise that they would feed us when we got back to the US at JFK, it's awfully decent of them to do that, it has never happened in FL.

Don't worry about bail bond funds, we are watching the exchange rate and will wire some money over when the rates are favourable.

Shhhh, the witness protection program is supposed to be a secret - don't tell anyone!

UHaul in front of Flitstones! Welcome home!

Good Morning Gillies,
Can anyone recommend a contractor to do concrete stamping on the driveway? We have seen several in the Village (especially the home on Euclid Terrace) that we like and would appreciate any recommendations.
Thanks!!

I had Amy Newsome (352 308 7410) stain my lanai and garage floor. She did a great job and was very reasonable. I will most likely have her to the driveway and walk when I get down there full time.
