Hi Martin, to second Stephany - many thanks for your alert, too. I just booked a seat in the first row of the dress circle (A 20) via phone. A short remark: if you call from abroad you've to call +44 1298 72190. Many thanks to Stephany for the seating plan. There's a view inside the Opera house available - cf. www.bbc.co.uk/derby/360/derbyshire_views/buxton/opera_house_inside.shtmlCheers, Karsten

Hi Stephany Looks like you are just opposite me on the aisle! I like the hand drawn seating plan - it must have taken someone ages! Like Karsten I also booked by phone and I believe that you will get a better seat than booking online (when I tried this I only was allocated row H before abandoning the booking). Martin

Great! I look forward to meeting you in Buxton, Karsten. I also booked by telephone and asked the 5th row because I didn't want to be too close to the stage after what you told us, Martin. Thanks for the advice! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif I also just found two pictures of the Opera House taken from the dress circle. They are from the BBC website. (Edit: woops! I see that you edited your post at the same time, Karsten!). All the seats seem to have a good view. The concert starts at 7:30pm which basically means that I can catch the last train of the day from Buxton to Manchester at 22:50. i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifStephany

Martin Martin, you're right - online there was only row D available in the dress circle one moment before... Hi Stephany, better late than never, I'm really looking forward to meet you - and Martin - in Buxton, too. Karsten

Hi Stephany and everyone! Phew! just got in from a day out and noticed tickets on sale for Buxton - I'm still shaking with excitement! Stephany, I can confirm that you are sitting in E17 'cos when I told the lady at the box office that I had a friend sitting in E27 she said "Oh no you don't!" Anyway, I have E18, so I suppose that means I shall have to behave myself!! As Comet would say Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!! Love Grant xxx

I'll try to be more careful next time and remember the exact seat number i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif This will be another fantastic evening and I'm very pleased to hear that we'll be sitting next to each other! Woohoo!! It may sound a little crazy but I really love booking tickets for Hayley's concerts! It reallly builds up the excitement. Love, Stephany xxx

Hi Gordon, It looks as though we got the same helpful man. I first talked to a nice lady but she didn't know how to process my order because my billing address is still in France. Anyway, row E has already three HWI members! Joyce, I hope you can make it to Buxton! It's going to be a nice international gathering as usual. Martin, you gave too much work to the Buxton opera House box office with your red alert i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifStephany

Oooopps!! As I was logging off at tea time, after all the excitement of finding tickets on sale, I remembered that I am taking Elizabeth to this one!! A quick 'phone call to Buxton Opera House and I have amended my booking to two tickets! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifI now have E18 and E20, so there's now 4 of us on row E although Elizabeth is an "Honorary Member". Best wishes Grant

Hi Grant, Good thing that you remembered your friend Elizabeth in time We can switch seats without any problem so that your friend can seat next to you. Is it her first Hayley concert? Love, Stephany

Hi Stephany Thank you for your kind offer, but that would then mean I wouldn't be sitting next to you either! I'm sure we can work something out. We could have Joyce in E21 by then It will be Elizabeth's first concert - she doesn't know I've booked tickets yet! :2fun: Now just got to hope that we can arrange a meeting, that would be the icing on the cake for her! Love Grant xxx
