Jade-Jade Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 Hi. I am new to this forum. Let me introduce myself. My name is Lisa and I live in Miami, Florida...which is just as hot (and humid) as Vegas. Oy...I would have loved to have attended the convention, but couldn't this year. It wasn't meant to be. Perhaps next year. I just heard the voice message from Mr. Butler, which was incredibly sweet and generous, and for an excellent cause! It looks like everyone had an awesome time! Anyways, I hope everyone has a great evening and look forward to chatting with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparty Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 That is such an amazing message. I love that he takes the time to call and lets us know that he is proud of what we do and how much all you girls put into putting on the convention. He is just too wonderful. I could listen to that voice forever... I believe we should be very proud and grateful to be able to help those truely in need and know through Gerry we are doing great things for others! Through the love of Gerry...anything is possible! Congrats Girls...and Thank You Dayna! Sparty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GerrysGalwayGirl Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 I had said in the recent past that I probably wouldn't be able to make it to the convention until 2012, BUT, after reading about all the wonderful fun everyone has, I think me and my twin sister will definitely go next year to the convention. Even if it means shortening our scotland trip(we will probably cut out england, just hit scotland and ireland). In the short time I've been a member of this wonderful site/forum, I've "met" some wonderful gals. So count me in for next year! WOOHOO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GerrysGalwayGirl I'd cut England out too I wouldn't even have included it in the first place Just kidding all you loverly English Gals Re Scott Mills he is a Radio 1 DJ who had Gerry on his show and kind of made fun of things that happen at Gals Conventions. Whether G was embarrassed or not - it's understandable cause how many people have conventions in their name - and went along with the joke making - it's a guy thing nothing more His actions this year with everything that he is providing and the monies he is matching just goes to show he is proud of his fans and what Gals stands for.

naturalbynature Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 Simply FANTASTIC! How cool is that.....such a high profile, busy man and yet so generous and humble. To call back 3 times to continue the conversation is committment to finish what he starts. And what a great acknowledgement to the GBGals and its members, this really has cemented my loyalty to the GBGals, it's the only site I joined and the last.

shirsan Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 Will it be told how much the convention made for TST? I'd love to know, watching the auction was fun but hard to keep track of, especially after RENO started losing the kilt, haha. Thanks again to everyone who made the VC possible. I always love to be a part of it and hope someday to actually be able to attend the convention. Love you all. Love him absolutely, Sandy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heISmyGspot Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 I can still feel the excitement we Virtual Con GALS and PALS felt listening to that voice and all the fun and joy we had sharing with the people at the LV Convention. We laughed, cheered and teared up as though we were there sitting with you. That's the very point of working so hard to webcast! You ARE sitting there with us!! Shirsan, we're still collecting funds from ebay, silent auctions, etc. I assure you, when a final tally has been determined, we'll be screaming from the rooftops and you won't miss it!!!

Thanks a lot That way, we can appreciate the whole call i also loved the transcript, when it first played, it scared me cause his voice is deep and he pretty much didnt get to sleep so i am thankful that he was kind enough to do that and i hope he is getting enough sleep when he did this.

Dorogusha Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 Dear Gals, thanks a LOT for the transcript and job you are doing for us at this site. I'm a regular looking-though-this-site-gal, but I'm not very successful in writing posts. But I'm happy to be a part of you, hear Gerry's voice, a bit tired but still awesome. Thanks to Gerry for the call and lovely message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How sweet he is and I am proud to be a fan and proud of all of you GALS! I have made so many friends via Gerry. It is an amazing "Gerry World" we live in. Hugs to you all.

Who do I need to defend you from as well?! You did PAIRFECT, Mel. In fact, I thought that perhaps Dayna had told you, too, not to scroll down and "give away" the surprise of Gerry matching funds because you so effortlessly followed through as if you KNEW there was going to be a great bang at the end. Thank you so much for just TRUSTING ME and doing as I asked *demanded?*. LOL! P.S. Hi Sarah!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamanthasPhantom Posted July 5, 2010 Report Share Posted July 5, 2010 The phone call from Gerry was lovely! Thanks to you GALS and Gerry for making it all possible. I can't make it to the Conventions, but I certainly love hearing his phone calls and reading about the details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joanna Posted July 29, 2010 Report Share Posted July 29, 2010 Hey Anybody, I tried to copy the transcript for my teacher to see and read about our Gerry that he thanked us for his convention and that we raised the money for a charity and it won't print out! I wanted my teacher to get to read how wonderful our Gerry is and how he took time out from Scotland to tell us how proud he is and how he is matching funds raised. As the statue raised a wee bit of money, I want my teacher and my friends that helped soooo much to make 'Gerry' a reality to get to read how grateful Gerry is for what the GALS did. How can I get a copy to take to school when I go back on the 24th? Jo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irish Posted July 29, 2010 Report Share Posted July 29, 2010 Jo! I just sent you by email a copy of the transcript as a word document. Hopefully, you can print that out sweetie. hugs, Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
