    you cant win in caithness, we dont have the population that other areas with cinemas have therfore they will never be as busy, perhaps the prices charged are what the business needs to cover its costs to simply survive?

    would all the complainers be happier if there was no cinema? the county would be a poorer place without it!

    it cant be easy to be competitive and to actually have a thriving business when as a pevious poster mentioned most films are out on dvd or sky shortly afterwards?

    yes I'm being serious, it was a very close family member who told the management exactly what he thought of their running of the place - not abusive in any way as he is not like that, but he was straight to the point

    My sister and 2 kids went to see High School Musical this week, she says she had her coat off and did not feel it cold at all.

    Just back from cinema today and it was warm. Wrapped up well after reading reports on here but had to take my coat OFF. Was bowling last Sunday and it was FREEZING - I think the power of the Org has come into play

    .... was at the 1615 showing of High School Musical and it was lovely and warm (or it could have been the extra jumper I put on in preparation!!). So no complaints about the cold in this instance.

    Just to add a quick note on the cinema prices. We were down in London a few weeks back and decided to go and see the new Mummy movie... £9 for a child and £13.50 for an adult! Thurso prices don't seem so bad now after paying that amount to go and see a movie.

    Probably has something to do with them having broken heating!

    Woohoo mccaugm! Canna wait either! Canna decide which cinema to go and see it at either - but don't think All Star Factory would be top of my list. Went there in the summer to see Mamma Mia - paid the same price as I would in Dunfermline and the seats in the row we were in were ripped to bits!

    Maybe they heard about the lack of heating and the torn seats too!

    Went there with my 7 year old this afternoon. It was warm when we first went in, but think that they turned the heating off as it was freezing by the time the film finished.

    Didn't think that the prices were to bad, except for drinks and snacks.

    Was at the cinema last night and was absolutly FREEZING! If it hadn't beem over £7 to get in I prob would have left. Took me ages the get warmed up even when I got home! Won't be going back in a hurry! If I do I will be wearing loads of layers thats for sure.
