I don't want to be negative but I would have thought that a lot of the
target audience for this sort of place may not have the required gadgetry.
Is that an awful stereotype?
I don't mean to say that anyone interested in gardens/gardening is old or
not capable of using new technology (I'm 26!) or anything of the sort, but I
would have thought this may put a portion of readers off.
No one likes to feel like they're missing out and may look elsewhere.
Just my 2p.
The offer's a bit "misleading". RHS members get in free anyway. And
anyone else only needs to buy the May issue of Gardeners' World
Magazine to get 2 for 1 admission to loads of places around the
country. This will save, for example, £8.50 at the National Botanic
Gardens of Wales alone and the saving is more than the purchase price!
One free ticket is a better offer than a half-price one. Get in quick,
though, as the May issue will soon be replaced by the June one on the
newsstands.
And there's another sting - anyone taking the smartphone route can be
tracked and the piece Dave quotes says they will be. So I suppose
that'll mean unwanted text messages and wotnot.
BTW, Jamie, could you please post any replies at the bottom of the
message you're replying to - it makes threads much easier to follow. I
don't know if Outlook Express can be configured to do this
automatically but, if not, just click at the bottom before you type.
Cheers, Jake
