I had the pleasure of proof reading the programmes today, they are stunning! Weve managed to produce a centre page spread of some pictures of Hayley which should create a nice place for her to sign and the general shape i believe is quite unique!
Please buy programmes when you arrive, all profit from these also goes to the charities!

Hi Andy, Yes, it will be good to meet up again. Are Vicky and Beth with you? I will be fresh from a holiday near Christchurch (Dorset though, not NZ unfortunately). Martin Hi Martin, No Vicki and Beth are not coming this time, as much as they'd like to, they've got something else on. If Sue's not going, it'll be a lads night out i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif  See you soon Best Wishes Andy |

Hi Danny
The programme sounds intriguing! Looking forward to getting my hand on one (or two ... or three ..) Have you set a price for them yet?
Also Danny, as several of us seem likely to be arriving during the afternoon, could you let us know daytime parking charges?
It would be useful to know so we can make sure we bring enough change.
Many thanks and best wishes
Grant

We are hoping to sell the programmes at 3 pounds each. This is necessary if we are to make a profit as the hall are taking quite a large commision annoyingly!
I believe parking charges in the day for the car park opposite the hall are 1.10 an hour, and i think slightly cheaper for the multi-story, but that is horrible!
I might be wrong but it was definately something like that when i was alst up there.

I believe parking charges in the day for the car park opposite the hall are 1.10 an hour Hi Danny Thanks for the info. Is there not a maximum charge for the surface car park? There usually is. At Lincoln it was £4.00 which covered up to 24 hours I think.Found the answer on Stoke's web site. As Danny has already said, parking is free after 6pm. It is £6.00 for 5 hours daytime parking (i.e. arriving at or after 1pm) or £4.80 for 4 hours. Best wishes Grant |

Hi Grant,
Ouch! But I suppose we can't complain, this is a good value concert as Hayley's always are, unlike some other over-hyped singers I could mention. Just a pity that it is the local authority that is getting the benefit, rather than UNICEF and COPA. I would have hoped that the council and the theatre would have been more sensitive to the good causes that this is supporting.
Hey Danny, how about a retiring collection for the charities? I'm sure that most people would contribute, after all Hayley's concerts are very special, times we will remember all our lives. Is 20 quid really all that it is worth? I have seen worse things advertised for 150 pounds! There is nothing to lose is there?
BTW my ticket arrived today.
Martin

how about a retiring collection for the charities? Hi Martin There was last time and I believe Danny told us it was well worth doing. I would expect there to be one this time also. Best wishes Grant P.S. See Danny's post HERE |

Yes, there will indeed by a retring collection in a similar form as alst time, which was a bucket placed next to hayley at the signing table. I think that made us nearly £200 last time.
I realise that to you lot £20 is a bargain to see Hayley, especially given the price of tickets for her tour, but becuase the concert is in Stoke, that is all we can really charge. It is one of the more deprived areas of the country and so people cant afford the higher prices, it means we dont make as much money, but as long as money is made i cant see the problem, i dont understnad the greed of some promoters.

Hi everyone Just over a week to go - I am really looking forward to this concert and to catching up with you all again. Perhaps I could ask Richard to start the 'official' countdown i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifRegards Mark |

Hi everyone. This is my first post to the group as I've just registered. I wanted to ask something, if thats ok. A friend and I will be at the concert on Saturday, and I have created a piece of art that I wanted to bring and give to Haylay. Is it possible to arrange some way to go backstage after the show to present her with this gift? Obviously it would be fantastic to be able to give her the gift in person and for us to pass on our compliments and admiration. Any help or advice on this will be very gratefull received.
Steve
