378.2Try ReadingKERNEL::MOUNTFORDThu Dec 06 1990 12:117
    There is a shop in reading I happened to pass last night which
    had loads of festival costumes in the window, including father
    Christmas outfits. I think it was called something festivals
    or festival costumes. It is on the Caversham road on the left
    just before the bridge. Hope it helps.
    
    PS directory enquiries gave a Carnival Stores no of 0734 586727!

	Walls Carnival stores is the shop on the left just before the bridge, 
	and the above number is for that shop.

	Hire charge between �15-�20 for costumes. They also have santa costumes 
	to buy and beards, and loads of stuff.

	They let you have the costume for two nights, eg, pick up Thursday, 
	drop off Saturday, or even......pick up Friday, drop off Monday, which
	I did last week.

	Have fun,
	Heather
