Christmas Dinner

Can anyone shed any light on the Christmas Dinner arrangements? All I've
received so far is a vague location, and the promise of a full menu.

Didn't really address the points. How do you get there without the aid of a
minibus? For example what if someone wanted to get there from somewhere like
Sussex and could get as far as Feltham station, but would need directions
from there. Also I heartily agree with eating and drinking lots, but what
of? Is the two-course dinner going to be enough, or should I splash out on
all three courses? Are we going to be eating Turkey or Tacos? Basically it
is going to cost me a shed-load to get there and I want to decide if I
should go, or save my money for Apollo 440.

The discussion afterwards covered location. The cinema and Chiquitos are
both
apparently visible from the station.

I would assume Mexican. I have asked them several times for a menu.
I hope to receive one tomorrow by hook or by crook. I will post details
tomorrow night.

GO GO GO.

I've never spotted them and I drive by the station entrance each time I raid

No. Head straight out of the station - NOT the heathrow bus side. You want
to be heading south. Straight through the car park, straight down the main
road towards town, and you'll start seeing signs for something like "feltham
film and leisure complex" or something on the left. Follow them, and the
dark and dingy road will eventually open out into a big open space. THEN the
cinema, and presumably chiquitos, are visible.
