Judge it!
In the above article it mentioned the pops concerts. We subscribed to the pops events each year for about five years. Then last year we were informed new management had taken over and when I went to renew my subscription I was told that I could not have the seats for the Saturday afternoon performances that we had enjoyed. So I did not renew. I wonder how many others did the same. May not help the problem but you don't have my $300 to $400 you had each year.

Why didn't somebody at LBSO do something four years ago when attendance started dropping? Is it short sighted to cut marketing wen you need to sell seats?

Daily Horoscope for January 7
Sagittarius
If you have any worries or problems today, a close colleague could have the answers you seek. Work will be satisfying, and anything to do with children should be very rewarding today. There could be friction with a relative, but it's nothing serious and things will sort themselves out in due course. Again, you must pay attention to your health, Saggitarius: skin infections are a strong possibility at the moment.
