No? I suggest it can be. Not everything has to be driven by the bottom line. I cannot see any strong direct commercial argument for the senior discount for example. Unless someone can show otherwise I presume it's because the club are being kind, as you put it, to this section of society.

M&S is hardly representative of pensioners as a whole though is it? It seems I'm on my own with concessions.

What is the feeling towards OAP discounts then? Can they be seen as analogous to disabled reductions?

No problem and your apology is accepted. And let's accept we have different ideology :smile:

Is there an OAP concession at the AMEX?

And I also totally understand your argument. But, I believe in inclusivity and the need for concessions to sometimes enable this. It's all very bleeding heart liberal I know.

mmmm. If someone on a bus asked me to pat them on the head because they liked it I'd probably go and sit elsewhere.

Do I? I have a different view to you, this is all.

And neither would I pat them on the head saying 'there there' because obviously this would be patronising.

Where do you draw the line then? Is giving up your seat on a bus to an elderly person patronising?

I was being facetious. Personally I think disabled supporters should get a discount. I fully understand and appreciate the desire to be treated the same as others but lets face it, it is tough being less mobile. And I see nothing wrong with making life a little easier for less able people in any...

You're probably right. I'm sure everyone who needs help with their mobility thinks "this is brilliant."

Getting a good deal? :facepalm:

Why not treat children as 'normal' and charge them full price?
