Thanks for pointing that out Dave. It's funny though, I thought there were going to be more than that! And I wonder where we are supposed to get the tickets!  Roger |

Hello Dave and Roger!  I thought it was going to be a bigger tour too, and I'm very disappointed at the lack of information. The venues are all rather awkward, but I might be able to go to the concert in Banbury.  Bye for now, Richard  |

Thank you for the information, we are so sad that we will be arriving back from Ireland too late for the concert in Manchester.
For fans who wish to go to the Town Hall, the venue is perfect. The Town Hall is very central and close to many hotels including a couple of 'Budget ones'. We assume the concert will be held in the main hall, the ambience and accoustics of which are ideal.
If you have time and are able to attend, take a little time to absorb the history that surrounds and is integral in the Town Hall.
D & B
p.s. We now feel even more fortunate that St Jame's was so enjoyable and convenient for us to attend..

Hi Dave, many thanks for your information about Hayley's UK-tour. It is a pity that no concert is on Saturday, because during the week I have to teach lectures. So I can not attend at any of these concerts.  What is about the concert in Liverpool on Tuesday November, 8 th at Philharmonic Hall. This concert is not on your list. Is it candeled Regards, Lothar |

Is it candeled Regards, Lothar Hi Lothar, I'm sorry to hear that you won't be able to attend any of the UK "November Tour" concerts. Did you plan to attend the Liverpool Philharmonic concert on November 8th? That isn't part of the "November Tour" as it was announced separately a long time ago. Hopefully, the official website have just forgotten to list it - tickets are still available to purchase online at www.liverpoolphil.com/ but obviously, this could change. Unfortunately, I myself am unlikely to be able to attend that concert  Cheers, Dave |

Hello Dave and Roger! I thought it was going to be a bigger tour too, and I'm very disappointed at the lack of information. The venues are all rather awkward, but I might be able to go to the concert in Banbury. Bye for now, Hi Richard and denis! Yes the venues are a bit awkward for us in the South but I think I can get to Banbury OK, and possibly to Tewkesbury and Milton Keynes (but it won't be all three!). I'd have thought that Milton Keynes is the easiest for you to get to Richard - by train anyway (assuming you are free that day). From Wimbledon, change at Vauxhall for Euston then on to MK Central? 90 minutes journey time... in theory! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifDenis, I'd love to be able to attend the Manchester Town Hall concert as I have relatives up there... but it will be awkward for me that day so I'll probably just go to one or two of the concerts in the South Midlands. Cheers, Dave |

Hello everybody! I've had a search and found some information on a couple of the venues, although neither lists Hayley's concert yet. For St. Mary's Church in Banbury, click on this link:- www.livearts-at-stmarys.co.uk/index.htmlFor the Stables Theatre in Milton Keynes, click on this link:- www.stables.org/Unfortunately the Stables Theatre is in the village of Wavendon, and the nearest station is about a mile away at Woburn Sands, on the Bletchley to Bedford Line. The last train to Bletchley is just after 10pm, which is a bit too early. The good news is that St. Mary's Church in Banbury is only a few minutes walk from the station, and the last train to London Marylebone departs at 22:51, arriving at Marylebone at 00:17. The even better news is that there is a later train to London Paddington via Oxford and Reading which departs Banbury at 23:50 and arrives at Paddington at 01:33. I hope to see some of you in Banbury.  Bye for now, Richard |

Thanks to everyone who has assisted with information about the various locations. They are certainly not the easiest places to get to and I may have to limit myself to just one concert, with Banbury looking the most likely for me too.

YAY! I didn't hear that. Jill is really lovely and it will be worth the trip to Liverpool (or wherever) to catch up with her again. Roger |

Well found, Richard. I see all seats are unresearved. I'm still looking at Banbury but I doubt if I will go to any of the others. Roger |
