This is going to be a good night. And so personal as well. Only seats 400 I have no idea where it is, but Ill find my way, I always do

Hello Nicola!

St. James's Church is very easy to find. Just go to Piccadilly Circus, then walk 200 yards down the left hand side of Piccadilly, heading west, and the church is just past Waterstone's bookshop.

It's definitely going to be a special night to remember, and I'm looking forward to seeing you there.

24 days to go! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif

Hi Emmett,

thank your for the map.
This is goog for me as a "blind chicken".
I will compare it with my own city map of London.
Greetings, Lothar

I have a question about this concert - and I have a special interest in this.

The concert has been announced as featuring "Hayley Westenra and friends".

So, it would seem that some of Hayley's friends participate in the concert.

Now, who would those friends be? Let us check who has performed with Hayley before ...

Bryn Terfel; José Carreras; Aled Jones; Russell Watson; Mario Frangoulis; Katherine Jenkins; Holly Holyoake ...

Any others singers you can think of?

To me there is significance in this question ... For instance, I approached Bandana Mangement twice, asking them if Katherine would like to be invited to the concert by Hayley's fans. (Bandana Management is Katherine's management company.) The first time I wrote to them, I got an answer that Katherine had duties that evening. I have received no reply to my second approach ...

I now am wondering - what are those duties of Katherine for that night? She wouldn't be attending as a friend to Hayley's special concert, would she?

For the benefit of Hayley's fans, I think the names of her friends on that evening should be revealed!

Cheers,

Gerrit

Well, that's an interesting thought, Gerrit. I suppose it is a possibility that we might see Katherine after all. Then again, perhaps her "friends" means us! Are we all in good voice, chaps?

Hello everybody!

I like the element of surprise here. Anybody who is a friend of Hayley's is a friend of ours, so I'm happy to wait until the night to find out who the guests are going to be. It's definitely going to be a night to remember! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif

Only 20 days to go!

See you there,

Hi Guys,

It could just mean Fiona and Ian, as they have been supporting Hayley on the Asian promotions .

[roger]

The last time I saw Fiona and Ian (at Kenwood House), I asked them if they would be accompanying Hayley on this occasion. Neither of them seemed sure and they did not have their scedules to hand but they seemed to think they were! Let's hope they remember in time! Lol

I agree with you Richard I wuld much prefer to be surprised.
I am very confident that the concert will be a great with Hayley and if any 'Friends' are able to be there and perform that will be a bonus.

Katherine would be the biggest pleasent surprise I would have ever received in my life lol.

Hi Belinda,
where do you want to go? - London only or other towns in U.K or Europe also?

Calling Richard! Calling Richard! Come in Richard.

Okay, we have these arrangements for us all attending the concert. One thing we haven't got is an arrangement for where we will meet up before the concert. You seem to be the expert on the area - are there any decent cafes in the immediate vicinity? Can you suggest a place to meet?

Cheers,
Keith.

[Richard]

Hello Keith!

I quite like Caffé Nero, and there is one right next to the church in Jermyn Street. It isn't very big, but there are some other branches nearby. I'll have a wander down there now and report back later this afternoon. i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif

Bye for now,
