Canadian Tuggers eh!

I've been a member of TUGS for many years and didn't even realize we have an organized group in Canada. Unfortunately I'm a ways away from T.O, what being in Atlantic Canada and all. But now I know what to look for. I'm in Toronto in November but it's after this meeting.

Have fun all.

Brian, I don't think anyone took any photos. Come to think of it, we haven't done that for a few years! Maybe we'll get some at the spring meeting.

Roy, your email must have been compromised. I just received this:

Hello,

How are you doing? I am sorry for reaching you rather too late due to the situation of things right now..I'm stranded in Manila,Philippines and had my bag stolen from me with my passport, mobile phone and personal effects therein. It was a terrible experience for me thank God the embassy has just issued me a temporary passport but I have to pay for a ticket and settle my hotel bills with the Manager before leaving.

I have made contact with my bank but it would take me 3-5 working days to access funds in my account, the bad news is my flight will be leaving very soon and but i am having problems settling the hotel bills. Please let me know if i can count on you i promise to refund the money back as soon as i get back home.

Thanks,

Yours
Roy Martin

Me too! I'll send you the $$$ asap! :rofl:

Dori

LOL.

As no response from Roy, I better call him. On the off chance he still isn't aware, and needs to warn loved ones.

OK, left him a voice message. So if anyone was duped, there's still time to reverse the transaction.

Keith Chen was unable to attend but asked his friends to visit him at his web site https://thefoodistmonk.wordpress.com/2014/10/12/the-launch-of-the-foodist-monk/

The meeting started with 30 minutes to mingle
Bob welcomed everyone and had participants introduce themselves, with comments Timeshare owned, recent exchanges, favorite places to visit/exchange, TUG 'handle’ etc

Mitzy Dadoun talked about her recent visit to the Caribbean Palm Village in Aruba. She described the resort, Island and places that they visited and enjoyed during their stay. She also provided some tips on what to do, how to travel and where to eat on the Island.

Cindy and Yoram Beer showed some photos and talked about their recent trip to the Berkshires and Resort that they stayed at. They talked about the art and entertainment in the area and the nature and hiking trails that they explored. They showed the location of the sites that they talk about relative to the Resort and emphasized the need for a car to see the attractions.

Two door prizes were won by Frank Clappa and Dexter Gonsalves

There was a discussion, lead by Bob, on items of interest to the participants at the meeting. A lot of “where to find information on…” was shared by the members present.

The meeting ended with another 30 minute mingle.

Our next meeting is planned for April 12 2015. I will send e-mails out about a month before the meeting.

Yours
Roy & Eira Martin
