But what's crapola? The product or the service? I'm pretty happy with the product, I'm delighted that we can get Harveys - that pisses over anything the Americans have. I don't mind the pies either but I do agree that we could have a bit more choice. I agree that the service could be improved...

It may be the lowest bid but it does mean food and drink is relatively cheap. There are two schools of thought here: there's the American model favoured by Easy 10, HKFC and Hampster Gull where there's more choice of food and it's served quicker but it's at least twice the price that we...
