Hi Dori, This is a strange one! We have actually seen it before but no progress seems to have been made. Some basic research tells me that the domain was first registered on 5th April 2004 and is still being renewed but, after all this time, the site is still showing as "under construction". The rigistrant is not known to us but appears to be a private individual and an inspired guess suggests that he may be in Scotland. (No, it's not Andrew!.) What the registrant intends to do is anybody's guess!  Roger |

Hi Folks,
Interesting !
There was a time when when certain "Nasty people" registered other peoples names in the hope of selling on the site to the person named as the logical owner.
or in an attempt to blackmail or otherwise extort money for the return of the name.
A certain company of solicitors did the same here in Ireland with hundreds of business names, Bad luck to them and their ilk,

Hi comet,
It is true there are some unscrupulous people around but we have no reason to believe that is so in this case.

Well said Grant!  I'm wondering if this 'new' website is the remains of a project by a college student somewhere, in which case it probably won't ever be worth looking at. The Internet must be full of unfinished homework and abandoned sites. HWI is the best place to be, because it's always alive and kicking! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifBest Wishes, Richard  |

Hi everyone Yes, I agree, well said Grant, I cant ever believe that you would find a site and its membership so dedicated to Hayley than our own HWI  I say this with no disrespect to Hayleys official site, which has, I am sure, many dedicated members, some of which are most of us of course i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif. Its just that in my view, it is the combination of the dedication of the members and managers of this site, along with the support (if thats the right word) we give each other and the fact that so many of us contribute regularly, that makes this site so special  Best regards Mark |

Hi all! I don't know if anybody knows about this site,but if you would like to see old versions of HWI & Hayley w's official site or any site you can think of,go to this link www.archive.org/web/web.phpthen just type the address in of what ever site you want to look up,in the centre window,then click "TAKE ME BACK",then choose any date you want. I've just been looking at some of Hayley w's old site verisons, be aware tho some photos may not come on,& Hayley w's videos won't work thur those old site version.But you can get an idea of what it looked like,or any site you look up. Happy site lookin'........Hayley Mc i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif |

I seem to recall he came from the Southampton area and the registrant of the site mentioned by Dori appears to be in Scotland. Also, the domain was renewed in 2005 and 2006 which is not likely if it was an abandoned college project. Incidentally, many thanks to everyone who has praised HWI. Believe me, your support is very much appreciated - by us, and by Hayley. Roger |

Hi Hayley Mc,
That is an interesting site you have found. I just took a quick look and found a review that I wrote years ago (so I soon closed it down!). I will take a closer look in the coming days.
Roger

Hello all, yes i have to agree that HWI is the ultimate place for Hayley info - and even news directly from Hayley herself!! What could be better???
Whoever's forgotten about working on that site is wasting their time, and no doubt their money...
