Hi Thomas It was good to see you again at Leamington and thankyou so much for your report. Like Grant, I found myself re-living the entire evening all over again. It was a great idea to get the set list signed by Hayley and Raven. If you recall, I picked up the bottletop that she had found on stage and took it to her - perhaps I should have asked her to sign it i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifI had forgotten that Raven had taken a couple of photo's of us - I wonder if they will post them anywhere ? Anyway, no doubt see you at another concert sometime soon. Best wishes Mark |

...If any of you have a few exclusive photos you might like to show to Hayley's newly arriving fans. there is more than enough room for them on Hayley's official forum. Don't worry to much about file size either, it just ain't a problem. Sorry Paul but that simply isn't true. If there are a lot of large sized photographs on a single page anywhere on the internet, there will be a problem. The difference is that the administrators of UCJ's forums are either oblivious to it or they simply don't care - but there would be a problem, especially for those with a slow connection speed. Roger sorry about the delay in answering this, in this thread. The reason I said file size was not a problem was because (At the time of my post) there was not a single photo posted in the recent concert threads. NOT ONE. So file size was irrelevant. Thank you to Mark and Karsten for posting a few really good ones. I have never had a problem with posting oversized photos there, I know some of mine are over the limit, but I find re sizing in photobucket to be a bit erratic and a bit beyond me to get them down to an exact file size, I usually crop the photos anyway so file sizes are all over the place. I suppose it's a bit like speeding, If you keep getting away with it, you'll probably keep on doing it  it also helps in the quality of the photo. I am also wondering why in this high speed internet age we are still accommodating people with slow connections. I am just wondering how many members here are still on dial up ? Bicycles, Learner Drivers and motorcycles under 50 cc are forbidden to use motorways, if you get my drift. |

Well, I really opened a can of worms there didn't I? Don't worry, Keith, you did nothing wrong. At least it shows we take these comments seriously. I suppose there will always be a few people around who wonder why a group of photographers take so many photographs but that doesn't make it wrong. And we certainly won't let them create a problem when there isn't one. Roger |

Hi Jillian While searching photo bucket I found this rather amusing photo. It must have been taken at Leamington (same outfit) I don't think it's Leamington, although it does appear to be UK. I've looked at some of the other pics which would seem to suggest the girls are dancers of some kind, although they are also referred to a 'crew girls' The girl standing on Hayley's left (right as you look at the picture) looks familiar. Best wishes Grant |

I wouldn't be sure without visiting again but the location for the image of Hayley with the 4 dancers could be the gardens on Newbold Terrace opposite the theatre.

It could be anywhere Keith, Jillian's basis for suggesting Leamington was Hayley's outfit, but I'm sure she wears that combination a lot. My reason for suggesting it wasn't Leamington was because I could see no logical reason for it being so. Where did the dancers come from? They weren't part of the concert. Why would they suddenly appear in a photo with Hayley if they weren't??? Best wishes Grant |

Oh, I don't know... perhaps Hayley was secretly planning to kick off her concert with a can can chorus line but chickened out at the last minute?! :rollin

Well, I don't recognise any of them. Okay, the one in the middle looks vaguely familiar!  Grant, you very nearly answered your own question yesterday when you mentioned "crew girls". Had you used that as a search term, Uncle Google would have led you to their website. They are part of a team of cheerleaders who appear for numerous sports clubs in the Coventry and Warwickshire area - not far from Leamington, in fact! Now, if you look at some of the earlier photographs taken by our members of Hayley's arrival, you will see a red strap over her shoulder - presumably some kind of shoulder bag although I didn't notice it on the day. But you don't see it in the photo of her with the girls. That suggests it was not taken when Hayley first arrived (we saw her enter the venue anyway) and she was probably not heading off in search of fruit and chocolate! That means she may have slipped out of the venue between the soundcheck and the concert for some fresh air. If the girls were in the area and recognised her, they would not be the first to ask for a photograph. With all that in mind, and because the background looks very similar to the nearby park, I think it is a fairly safe bet that it was taken in Leamington. Regards, Sherlock!  |

Everyone's ganging up on me!  OK, I conceed, it might have been taken in Leamington.  Roger, you would have had to lower your gaze considerably to see Hayley's bag - any lower and it would have needed wheels! It's the same one as seen in the picture of Hayley, Tim and Dave crossing the road in Glasgow. Best wishes Grant (accepting defeat!) |

Another case where I hadn't expected a big debate when I commented that I thought it could have been shot in the local park  Has anyone tried contacting 'The Crew' and asking them ?  |
