£30 for two adults and two kids is superb value!
its smacks of familyism tho, i'm unmarried, cohabiting and have no intention of having children, wheres my discount?? i'm writing to my MP about this matter, and i want a tax rebate too while i'm at it!!
To be serious for a minute.
Whilst I have no idea for the actual reason, and whilst I am not saying that your outgoings are any different to those with kids, I guess that the reason the club are doing this is to help out the familes that have two or more kids - it can be rather expensive otherwise.
Difficult one though, as there may be a family where the father/mother earns a ton of money and can easily afford to pay "full price" yet somebody who has no kids earns little money may find it a struggle.
