Probably when they contacted the theatre for feedback they were then told the deal hadn't been honoured.

Maybe they have, I doubt they would advertise that though, wouldn't do well for any future arrangements for SFF if they did.

I think people have every right to complain and should do when the service they expect isn't delivered whatever it is, but NEVER to be abusive no matter how dissapointed. I get no end of abuse when we are running behind at work, people think they have the right to shout, swear and call me all sorts of names becuase the appointments are running behind!! If they were nice I would make the a cuppa, ring the parking attendants and look out for cancellations for them!!

Hope your eyes are getting better!
Preferred Cinema's now Paignton or Exeter!

Hence I am curious to see how "abusive" these letters are

Yeah, come on wiki-leaks, where are you when we want to know the important things.

A Flea in her Ear might be good. It's got good pedigree

I'm rather new to this site, so I do hope Im doing this correctly.
I would very much be interested in a thread that looked at and perhaps reviewed theatre and concerts.
I would be happy to participate.

Yay, off to see A Flea in her Ear tomorrow. I guess that's settled whether I should p*y £10 to go to the SFF showcase or watch a free film and a play

Lucky you, SH! Hope it's good. I'm due back at work tomorrow or I'd have tried for a place, too. Let us know what it's like.
