Discrimination in Seat Allocation!
Today I jetted over to London. And was a bit shocked. When I wanted to buy tickets for a show in the West End, they told me that I cannot sit together with husband and son. I will be placed in the middle, husband and son have to sit in the last row. Reason: the seat allocation has changed: shorter people are placed at the front, with taller people towards the back.
That might be reasonable for tall people - so it is OK for husband (1.98m) and son (2.02m) - but I with 1.78m suddenly feel so horribly 'avarage'! I'd like to sue. (Discrimination and compensation for personal suffering).

Mm... :)
ReplyDeleteYes: :-)
DeleteI'm sitting in the very first row. :) Greetings Maria x
ReplyDeleteThe first row - a prominent place! In the cinema I volontarily always go to the last row - then I can sit without the feeling of having to crouch (so that people behind me can watch undisturbed). Greetings Britta x
DeleteI have never heard of this before Britta - demand your money back and with compensation.
ReplyDeleteYes, it's really unbelievable!
DeleteHow very odd. I dislike the first row and that is certainly where I'd be placed. Maybe you'll cancel and write a letter.
ReplyDeleteYes, Pondside :-) Hope my letter will not be Lost in Translation...
DeleteVery, very naughty!.....but clever! I am ready to believe just about anything!

ReplyDeleteThank you! I found the inspiration on the Guardian, where they told a lot of British jokes - "Big Ben is going digital", haha)
