Hi Grant,

Despite what doubts Hayley might have had with regards to that special Christmas Kiwi - I think it looks really great! Esp the see through Santa hat! Seriously though. Very nicely done - as I instantly knew what it was prior to reading your post.

Hi all

Many thanks for your reports and photos. Well done as usual !!

I am concerned about reports of Hayley not getting enough rest, and having to sleep in the car.

Same here, Richard ! We'll have to be patient though because Stuart and Steve are in Bath for tonight's concert and I don't think they are returning home until Sunday night . I predict a lot of posts on this thread early next week. !

Although more pics won't be coming for awhile, the ones we have are great! Now all I have to do is save them! I love Hayley's top!

OK guys, I'll try to fill some of the gap with a couple more photos, the light was low, I was at the side and with people between me and Hayley, I could only take a few snatched shots at the end of each half. None of us regulars uses flash in a concert setting.

The ones from the end of the first half were blurry because of the low light and Hayley moved (though her black/gold knee length dress is clear) so we should wait for Steve & Stuart to see that, I think.

For the second half I increased tha camera sensitivity to its limit of 3200 ISO - which reduces blurring but causes grainy photos, this is better than blurring so here are a couple:

Hayley and Al taking their bows at the end


A closer but slightly shadowy shot of Hayley at the end

I think I should stop there, I have to head for Bath soon...

Hi Comet!


Your 'fishy' tale got away on me!

I must be missing something?


Was it a mermaid?

Really want an answer?


Now, let's see

... three question marks

... very hard question!


But I'll try to answer them (one at a time):

Question 1

Question 2

Question 3


Am I right?


Paddy

[Nordly]

Nope- I was awake, but I wasn't looking at this thread! But the zzz is a good idea!!!!

[Richard]

Hello Comet and Paddy!

Hayley caught a much bigger fish in the River Avon at Bath. Look at this!

Hi all,

Didn't have the time to check all the posts yet but I've seen some of the pictures and they look great despite the very low lightning. Thanks everyone!

Drawing Kiwis has become the 'new thing' during signings. James will certainly give you more details on this when he has the time to post Here's mine - not a Christmas Kiwi, but a French kiwi! I only asked for a simple Kiwi but Hayley found the idea of the 'French beret' very amusing. Very creative, Hayley. Thanks so much!
