Hi Ross & everyone, We got that email as well. You beat me to it. Well done. Marianne & I have bought tickets to Kerikeri & also Blenheim. Here's what we look like. Since there is no seating at Blenheim, we'll just have to look out for each other....If you could post a pic of yourself on here we'd be able to recognize you    ] Really Looking forward to the Blenheim Concert Ross as I'm sure you are. I also intend buying tickets for Waipara today. Warm greetings from across the Tasman....Graeme |

Following Belinda's post, which is a summary of the group of 6 Hayley-Dave Dobbyn Concerts, here's a map showing all 8 of the NZ Concerts for Jan-Feb 2008. The numbers are in the date sequence of each Concert.  Hope everybody finds them useful. Graeme Source of map www.oceania-maps.com/new-zealand.htm |

Hi Stephany,
Marianne & I are really looking forward to the Waipara & Blenheim Westenra-Dobbyn Concerts.
I have a tiny niggling reservation tho.
Want to guess what it is?
Think about Shepherd's Bush Concert for your answer.
Graeme

Thanks for that, Belinda. Suddenly, the tour is being called 'In Tune With Nature'. Perhaps that sounds more appealing than 'The Wineries Tour'!

Hi HWI Christchurch visitors , who will be in Christchurch on the 11th Feb I'm trying to organise a day out before some leave town on the 12th Maybe visit a few hayley sites around town ,tram ride etc j then Jump on bus which stops at the gondola , ride on gondola then thru to lyttelton then ferry across to Diamond harbour for lunch or afternoon tea (where my parents live), you have all been invited they have been on many trips round south island and have videos of the scenery on way to queenstown so if anyone wants a sneak preview of what they can see , They have a nice garden and there is some nice views from their house of the harbour, there won't be a shortage of Hayley music :rollin they had no chance  Belinda |
