Empty seats: let the people in to the feast

So what was that all about tickets not being available ( Report , 27 July)? There are loads of empty seats. My friends from Paris have wasted hours and hours on the internet and eventually managed to purchase tickets for only five events. So they are now wasting days in London kicking their heels when they could have been in the audience. Martin Redston London • I would have liked to attend, but I was unwilling to write a blank cheque, effectively, with no guarantee that I would be able to attend any event of even the most remote interest to me. Richard Hayward Oxford • Permit the holders of company concessions up to noon on each day, then remove their rights and pass them on to the British public for a tenner a time, the money going to sports, hospitals, children and emergency charities. Terry Duncan Bridlington, East Yorkshire • There is, of course, an old-fashioned egalitarian biblical principle that Locog may wish to apply. When all the invited guests managed to find excuses for not going to a classy wedding, it was those in the "highways and byways" who were gladly invited in to enjoy the feast. Paul Flowers Bradford • Empty weekend Olympic corporate seats? They'll be full on Monday, a working day. No worries. Martin Jeeves Cardiff
