So I thought the O² treated their patrons with contempt, but On The Beach takes this to another level. Got this with less than 5 hours notice. Nothing mentioning 18:00 on the tickets. What the actual fuck?
Delightful text message trying me I'll be charged a "late fee" for dating to arrive after 18:00, when last entry is 20:00.

Stuck in a taxi, and forced to listen to LBC... Discussion on fining people for swearing in public, and a so called etiquette expert going on about how awful swearing in TV is. What a load of absolute fuckwittery. 👿

Am I alone in being intrigued as to how these things ever got accepted, both by the manufacturer, and the shops that use them? I've used thirty year olds touchscreens that are more responsive. 🐬👿
