A Hayley smile just for me! Sorry to disillusion you Grant, but I think she's just spotted the chocolate.

A very nice frame too it just suits the job, well done, Rodders

All I can say is roll on Southampton (How many days Richard?) NINE, and don't call me Richard! James, what you say about everyone associated with Hayley is certainly true. Funnily enough, people were saying it three or four years ago. Everyone at Bedlam Management (past and present) and of course all of Hayley's family are some of the nicest people I have ever met. Although I said a few days ago that I would not write any sort of report, I must impart one particular moment that, for me, was very special. When most of our members had spoken to Hayley, got something signed, and taken their photographs and so on, I stepped a little closer. I had been lingering in the background until that point. As soon as Hayley saw me she said "Hi Roger, how's things?". That surely is not typical of the way a celebrity greets a fan. That is more like a meeting between two friends and considering she is a celebrity and we are fans, it makes us feel very special. Roger

Hello everyone, well there aren't any new photos yet, on this page of the thread and we can't have that so I'll add a few that I took at the end of the concert, which are hopefully a bit different as I was a few rows further back than the others. Cheers, Dave

Is that Roger's head getting in the way of Hayley's dress? [/center][/quote] No Dave. I could be wrong, and I risked being sued for libel if I am, but I have a feeling it might be Martin. Great pictures and it is especially pleasing to see such a good shot of Al and Fiona with Hayley. Roger

Hi Steve,
Thanks for the wonderful photographs once again. Roger the one you have framed looks absolutely fantastic.
James, it was nice to read your comments, very interesting. Particularly about everybody that is associated with Hayley being so friendly.
Thanks for the pictures Dave.

WOW!! This is some thread and has produced some amazing images and wonderful comments. I certainly agree with Roger's comment that Hayley, her family and the people at Bedlam are some of the nicest people he I have known. So, before we start all over again with Dublin (thankfully someones elses responsibility!) a few more from me. Hayley with DavidThese last 3 I think show just how much Hayley was enjoying herselfBy the way. Many thanks to those of you who came up with captions. There are no prizes, but I enjoyed reading them. To be truthful, I only suggested it because I couldn't think of a title myself! Last few to come shortly. Best wishes Grant

Well folks, this is it, the last from me. I hope you have enjoyed seeing them as much as I enjoyed taking them. By your kind and gracious comments, it would appear that you have, so I'll close with a set taken towards the end when we managed to get Hayley and her mum to pose together for us. For some reason I didn't manage to get one when they were both looking at me! But never mind hey! Going to bed now! Nighty night! Best wishes Grant

Hi everyone, Thank you very much for the additional superb pictures Steve, Dave and Grant. I'm having a hard time trying to do a selection of pictures to print them! Might have to wait after Southampton and Bath to do that even though the choice is going to be tougher James, I certainly agree with all your interesting comments. I also find it amazing to see how well we all get along despite having met only a few times (or even not at all in certain cases). In Shepherds Bush we didn't really get the opportunity to talk, and I'm glad we did this time, James! Look forward to seeing you again in Southampton...roll on the next 8 days! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifStephany xx

Hello again everybody! Once again, many thanks for all the fantastic reports and photographs. It was a wonderful concert that will live on in our memories for many years to come. James, are you sure you were still sitting in the audience while Blake were on stage? i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifBest Wishes, Richard

Hi Roger
I know exactly how you must feel. You're right of course it is'nt the typical way a celebrity would address her fans. I would say though, yes, without doubt we are fans and yes, Hayley is with out doubt a celebrity. However, with Hayley being the sort of person she is, and with us being the sort of people we are, I would like to think that she views us as friends. Particularly those like yourself, who have known her a long time. I felt this was particularly obvious at the BBC in Cardiff and at Shepherds Bush earlier in the year, when on both occasions HWI members were invited back stage to the private party. Hayley I thought was noticably much more relaxed around us away from the public eye. I would like to think that this is an indication that Hayley feels comfortable amongst us and does tend to think of us here at HWI, as friends as well as fans.
Best regards Mark

Hi All,
Thanks to everyone for the further reports and photos, a superb effort and a wonderfull reminder of a great evening. I must agree with the comments from Roger and Mark regarding Hayley's attitude towards her fans. I am always amazed that she remembers my name each time we meet in view of the fact that she meets many people each month.
Gordon

Hi everyone, I agree with all of you. I was amazed to see that Hayley didn't seem to struggle to remember my name. It makes us feel a little bit special. Let's just say that Roger is extra-special Stephany
