Hi Ross, This is an excellent article, thanks a lot for sharing. I do have a question though, what is an 'OE'?  Best wishes, Stephany |

Many thanks for scanning the article, Ross!  It's a fascinating article, even though there are no real surprises there. One thing I've always noticed about Hayley is her remarkable stability, and I'm sure it's because she's careful to be true to herself. Long may she remain so!  Best Wishes from London, Richard  |

She also has a great family who support her, Richard. I've always realized the most stable people are the ones with strong family roots and ties, and that definitely applied to Hayley.  She's very lucky. Dori i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif |

hi Belinda, My brother just text me and said he got one for me. Let's just keep our fingers crossed that he got the right one - otherwise i might have to knock on some poor soul's door, begging for a copy!! Chances are they'll be someone right here from HWI!! :2fun: No, i think my brother got the right copy... Dori |

Thanks Dori. I've been scratching my head for a while now re OE.Before I read your answer I'd looked up my (very good) wordweb dictionary (http://wordweb.info/) & learned what OE meant. Here's what it came up with: OE is an abbreviation for:
* Original Equipment * Ordinary Everyday * Asia Overnight Express IATA airline designator * Oersted, a unit of magnetic induction * Okean Elzy, a Ukrainian rock band * Old English language * Old English 800 malt liquor * Olathe East High School high school in Olathe, Kansas * Operation Explore * Opportunistic encryption * Organizational Entity * Orient Express, a famous train * Original equipment * Ottoman Empire, a former national entity that, at various times, included Turkey, the Balkans, Arabia, and most of North Africa. * Outlook Express, an email program * Overseas experience, a New Zealand term for extended working holidays * Ophryocystis elektroscirrha, a protozoan parasitic on butterflies * Optimum Experience Games, a computer games company based in Poole, England. * Old Etonian, a former pupil at Eton College, England * Ottoman Empire * Over Equipping, a term from Massively Multiplayer Online Games So, its a good unambiguous abbreviation as you see.  I think the Aussie abbreviation for the same is OT (Overseas Trip) graemek |

Dori i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifYes Dori, Counts for an awful lot...like relaxing & being yourself....not trying to force an unreal image..... being loved in particular so that you can love others.

Exactly - being loved results in loving others very easily. It's quite fascinating how the human mind and emotions work in that sense. I had no idea OE was a New Zealand term!!! I thought it was quite universal, but i was wrong.... 8)

Hi Ross! Great article. It's good to see Hayley getting all this press publicity whilst she is travelling and living so far from her natural home. To me, it seems as though it's a way of saying we won't forget you! Come home soon! I've hopefully got a personal copy on its way to me as we speak! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifBest wishes Grant |
