A very British Christmas (OT)

Hi everyone, 

I know this is sort of OT, but I thought some of the Brits on the 
list could help this Yank by giving him some ideas.  

I want to do a dinner party for 5-7 people sometime near Christmas, 
and I want it to have a real British flair. So I was wondering if 
anyone could give me advice, and maybe some good recipes.  I was 
thinking  of serving lamb, probably Yorkshire pudding, Christmas 
pudding and...erm, what else would be good?  

I got some Christmas crackers at the mall today so I'm on my way.

Also can anybody tell me if suet is the same thing as fatback?  I 
think it is, or close enough that I could use it as a substitute...

Help!

Scott
