We need numbers up front for those interested in coming to the Friday night get together at the Chinese, this is traditionally chaotic - year one no one turned up on time and Will was worried about the 40 places he had paid a deposit for and then 60 odd turned up - luckily the restaurant was quiet and they were able to accommodate us. Year two yet again we were woefully unequipped with places which led to no places for quite a few people!
After the major work of setting up the machines in preparation for opening on the Saturday morning, it's a great chance to unwind, chat/bitch and moan as only we pinballers can and most importantly - drink some beer!
Situated in the heart of the sprawling metropolis that is Worthing we have the China Palace Restaurant, entrance is on the ground floor but the restaurant is actually on the 1st and 2nd floors. The food is very good, cost is around £15 per person for the meal (all you can eat buffet). Kids welcome (I'm bringing mine) although expect some choice language at times - we will try to stick families together though so that any japes and poor use of the Queens English can be kept from the kids as much as possible.
The restaurant is 1.5 miles from the Charmandean (5 mins by car, 25 min walk), 3/4 of a mile from the Burlington (approx 15 minute walk) and half a mile from the Travelodge (approx 10 minute walk)

Most importantly, we need realistic numbers as turning up on the night is likely to be unacceptable (the restaurant is ALWAYS busy) due to it being Easter and therefore the town being markedly busier than normal. We will be booking (and paying deposit) for 60 people on Monday but we really need to know if more places are required ASAP (there were 75 in 2012) so get in early with your requests!
Please PM me to book your place, we may require a deposit closer to the time.
