I love the photo, Raymond. Do you mind if I use it as my avatar?

Of course, I don't mind. Also, if anyone want the photos on my website, you can download it to your computer.
Cheers,

Thank you Becky and Raymond,

... Raymond! Sorry that you couldn't get your CD signed. Fancy having to actually buy one right there in order to get it signed.

I'm shocked, I've never known that to happen anywhere else and I bet Hayley either didn't know about it or didn't approve. Unbelieveable, crazy.

I will be mentioning this when next I meet Steve. There was something critically wrong there. Raymond had bought a copy of Odyssey and that should have been enough for him to get an autograph. It should not matter where it was bought, the fact is it was.

And Raymond, next time use the name of Hayley Westenra International. As a correspondent, you are entitled to do so.

Keith.

Yes, this is crazy. I am sure Hayley don't know about this because they didn't use English to say this at that time. They use Cantonese to tell us if we want to have a signed CD, we needed to buy one there.

Let me write some more. The one who was selling 'Odyssey' there is called 'Hong Kong Records'. They are one of the sponsors.

In order to know who have buy the CD from them, I saw that when you bought one, they gave you something called' signing coupon'. Unless you have that coupon, you are not allowed to have a signed CD.

Actually, it's so very Hong Kong to do that to you. After a while, they wouldn't even let people take pictures with Hayley. So I lingered round the exit and said hi and poked her. Um, yes. I do promise you I asked her permission first.

Which exit? Is that the one in the walk? I also saw Hayley leave , but I didn't see you poke her. Many people are there.

[portia]

Right the place where she left the stage. Basically, I stood at the corner, and when she stepped out onto the floor of the mall and I stuck out my head and asked.

Hi Raymond, Becky and Portia,

Great to hear the news about you lot seeing Hayley at the signing.

Great shot there Raymond, she looks amazing in it.

Sorry to hear about the bad threatment from the record store there, not allowing any more photos . I understand if the artist requests this but not the store, and especially with a signing on what do they expect .

Also having to buy a cd just to get it signed, sounds like the store wants to squeeze any money out of people it can. I remember at Classicalive in March they had the same arrangement, a siging session with Hayley and copies of 'Pure' for sale next to the stand, but they did'nt mind people bringing their own material to get signed.


Well done again guys i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif,

[Raymond]

Yes, I agree that they were trying to squeeze money. It is okay that they can sell 'Odyssey' there but under the circumstance that I can bring my copy for signing. Just like the function Emmett mentioned. I hope that when next time Hayley come to HK, this thing won't happen again.

Cheers,
Raymond

Hi Raymond,

Well hopefully some people there complained about this problem, as I'm sure alot of people already had a copy of 'Odyssey'.

I hope the next time you meet Hayley everything will be sorted by then i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif.

Also, do you have other photos from the signing up on your site.

Emmett

Yes, I think so. So some fans finally have to buy two copies of 'Odyssey'. Emmett ,if you and also other members would like to have all the photos , I can send them to you through email. Please tell me if you want the photos by sending a email to me or tell me here. You can also download them from my site.

Cheers,
