Hayley Westenra (or 'Hayles', as she told me she prefers to be known – I'm so showbiz) Interesting!! Not long ago we were considereing "Hayles" to be a 'privileged' nickname, now it seems she prefers it. Wonder if that applies to us? Personally, I feel it is too personal, but then I've never been a great fan of nicknames, besides which, I think "Hayley" is one of the most gorgeous girls names there is. So why shorten it? Guess we could ask her! Best wishes Grant |

Thanks for the beautiful photo, Steve and Drew. What excellent taste in clothing this young lady has......I have never seen such good selections in the outfits that she wears. I can't wait to see what she will wear next! |

Grant wrote Hi Grant Sorry this is off topic but I just had to say that until reading this, I didnt know of that nickname. The spooky thing is that I actually refer privately to Hayley as "Hayles" , usually to myself or when refering to her infront of my family and nearly always after listening to her sing one of my favourite tracks on CD. Picture the scene, I find a rare quiet moment to myself at home, I lay out on the sofa and turn my Bose sound system up to a decent volume. Sometime later, the sound of Hayleys voice is fading away after the last bar of Sonny and in the moment of silence before the next track, I can be heard softly muttering "absolutely fantastic Hayles" just as though she is in the room with me. Oh how I wish she was, because I truly mean what I say  I have many times at concerts almost uttered the same words as Hayley finishes a song - just for that moment forgetting where I am Oh well, back on topic - I hope your tickets arrive soon  Best regards Mark |

Seriously though, I agree we English are very conservative when it comes to expressing our feelings in public. Only recently at Chichester I felt like giving a standing ovation but would have felt a real wally if no one else joined me. Martin |

Hi Mark, Thank you for sharing your 'Hayles' story. Very personal but so sweet!! In the end, you decided not to go to Woburn ? Lots of love, Stephany |

Hi everyone I have just looked on the ticket booking page and it seems the Premier tickets are still available I'm not sure that I understand the seating arrangements - for the premier, do you get an allocated seat ? If so, booking so late, would I be at the back of the premier seating area do you think ? What if it rains  Oh - I dont know.... Mark |
