I didn't want to disrupt the book thread, but why do we get concession prices for things like football and cinema, but not books? It's the same thing we're experiencing isn't it?

I would prefer concessions on beer. As they couldn't give them to under18s they're would be more to spare to enable larger concessions for us deserving over 65s.

Often wondered why someone (or your family, estate etc) had to pay for burying oneself (after death obviously).
Seems like a discriminatory act that can be neither contested nor defended. All those bloody taxes we pay whilst alive ?
I read it somewhere :emoticon-0100-smile

Libraries sometimes have concessions on fines I suppose. With both libraries and the vast resources on the internet I don't think I'll have many reasons to buy that many books, though I could say the same for other things like music and film.

With live viewing you can tell who is using the service - old fella turns up at a match or cinema buys ticket goes and sits down you know who is watching, old fella rocks up at a book shop, buys book for reduced price gives it to his middle aged son, then its not really worked has it?
