Hello all!

After discussions, we have decided to throw a Christmas Dinner bash in the Neuchâtel area. Odile has very kindly offered to host and we are now trying to organise numbers and other details.

The choices for the meal are: traditional turkey dinner, fondue chinoise or raclette. There is a poll where you can vote for this in a separate thread here as I can't see any way of attaching a poll to an event (mods, please do so if it's possible!).

If you say you're coming and can't make it with less than one week's notice, then I'm afraid we'll still have to ask for around £10 (this is the currency I was given, but please feel free to correct ) as a contribution towards the cost of the food.

The location is an old farm in the mountains above Fleurier. You can either drive or get the train to Fleurier and take a bus up (very easy to do).

Hope you can make it!!!

Belgianmum has added very important information and details to the end of this thread - please read!!!
