"Continuing with the Christmas theme, this seems like a face only a mother could love. Like somehow evolution decided to put the turkey's guts on the outside of his neck, and what even is that dangly appendix bit between his eyes? Wiki says the longer your snood the more likely you are to successfully mate. No wonder he looks grumpy with all that going on on his face (although that could also be the time of year - December and American accents are known to cause extreme stress to his species). Male turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) in full sail. Staglands."

I knocked over my beautiful ( and expensive) lead light floor lamp, which is quite heavy. The top broke off and the side is a bit caved in in one part, but most of it is still fine. The dome measures about 53 cm in diameter at the bottom.

The top broke off and the side is a bit caved in in one part, but most of it is still fine. The dome measures about 53 cm in diameter at the bottom.
If you are a handy person who can solder the top back on again and fix the lamp please message me. The few broken bits of glass are still there. The lamp is very beautiful when lit but I think it would be too expensive to have it fixed professionally . A Christmas project for someone?

With Christmas fast approaching, we'd be keen to hear from those who spend the festive season (or part of it) away each year. Where do you go and why? What makes it such a great place to be at this time of year? What are you most looking forward to about the trip? Any words of advice you may have on things to do or places to eat or drink in the area would also be much appreciated. As usual, please put 'NFP' (not for publication) in your comment if you don't want it included in a travel article. Cheers.
