Fan Fare, What's New, Pussycat?
Here’s where you’ll find TJ photos and stories that don’t fit into any other categories. It is, as its name says, just for fans — and, hopefully, for fun.
Calendars
Wednesday, December 19th, 2007Friends:
The 2008 TJI.com fan-photo calendars were mailed Monday. The US Postal Service says that they will be slowest arriving in Canada. In fact, people in Europe and Asia should get them before Canadians.
We cannot of course vouch for the accuracy of that statement but, with that in mind and, also, bearing in mind that ’tis the season, please allow some time for them to arrive.
Then, please let us know what you think.
Thanks!

Hi. I speak from experience. I live in Canada and I get cd’s etc. faster from the UK then I do from the USA. I would think that we should get our calendars by the end of the year. After all the excitement of the holidays calms down it will be wonderful to get our Tom Calendars!! Thank you.

Hi Ellen & Ursula, I received my calendar today and it’s wonderful. I already hung it . I don’t want to spoil it for anyone who didn’t receive theirs yet, but the August picture shows that his singing isn’t the only area where he’s blessed!! Thank you so much ;-).

Just in time for Xmas.My calendar arrived today and my favorite month is May. I think August is hot but not because of the weather. You guys did a wonderful job! Very much appreciated. I can’t wait for the New Year to start

Just got home from work and “surprise” My TJ calender is here! Thanks so much Ursula and Ellen for a job well done.

This is a job well done. Merry Christmas, ladies, and many thanks for your efforts. I hope you know how much you are appreciated. If you don’t…..you need to.

I love the calendar!! What a great job. I loved all the pictures. May and December were my favorites. Yes, it will be hot this August for sure! I also liked the specific date notations at the bottom of each month, that was a nice touch. You ladies are great and we are grateful to have you and your website. Thank you! PS: Do you think you could get a poster made of him lifting his shirt during KISS? I bet you would make a million dollars!

Just wanted to let you know that both my friend and I are delighted with our calendars. You did a terrific job and great choice of pictures. I’m glad that the picture from the knighting ceremony worked out and others will see this special picture of Tom. I love the memos of special events in Tom’s life on some of the months. You do a great job keeping Tom’s fans up to date on shows etc. Happy New Year! Lalla

Ladies, what a great calender! I hope Tom hears about this and lets his management know what his fans are looking for. I think the quality is great and the choice of pics is outstanding. Actually they are delicious! Keep up the good reporting and keep us informed if there is to be a poster of Tom in the future. I will also buy one. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

I recently returned home being gone a few days and the very first piece of mail I opened was your TOM JONES calendar!!!!! How very beautiful and artistic it is. I thoroughly enjoyed every page as I will all year long. Thank you Ellen and Ursula for your thoughtfulness of our Tom and all of his true fans. I do get to go to MGM often and I’d really love to meet you. Merry Christmas and a great New Year.

Thank you so much for your hard work on the calendar. I absolutely love it. It hangs in my office so that I can see Tom whenever I like while at work. I should have ordered two and will.
