fusion Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 I have noticed on facebook people having tours of the mareel, wish i knew as i wouldnt mind a look. Is this for anyone or just friends of staff? I think its who u know, than what. Think its just staff, workmen and permoters etc. normal folk i think will have to hold on untill something is on, unless they have a open day for just the shetland folk to come and look around without having to pay for the pleasure. Won't be long now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sudden Stop Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 In lieu of any official information I have heard (purely rumour mind) that the cinema opening is only days, rather than weeks, away! Next weekend??? Anyone know more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piggywiggie Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 Is there an opening date yet? Or is it just going to be a surprise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuckleJoannie Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 According to the Mareel's Twitter feed the LED screen above the main entrance has been installed and the popcorn machines, popcorn and sofas have arrived. The day is creeping nearer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longdog Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 /\ sounds good to me. When I go to see bands or films I want to see and hear them not put up with drunken plonkers disrupting things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unlinkedstudent Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 /\ sounds good to me. When I go to see bands or films I want to see and hear them not put up with drunken plonkers disrupting things. Can understand that, but how do you feel about say if you were 28 but looked under 25 and they asked for your ID to ascertain that you were 18 or over? Now if they were holding an event for say the over 25s then fair do, but I don't like the 25 scheme just to ascertain if you are over 18. You can end up with one member of bar staff thinking you look over 18 and another one doesn't. Why not just ask for ID upon entry, whack a stamp on your hand/place wristband/whatever and then show it at the bar? The bar area looks small enough as it is and no doubt the bar staff will be busy enough as it is, drink (less) policy in place or not.

Longdog Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 Well yeh there could be better ways of managing age issues but I was meaning trying to limit the other problematic aspects of excessive drunkenness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironwithin Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 Mareel is going to have to get as many heavy drinkers in the door as they can, as no other way they can come near breaking even. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
