    Thumbs up It's geek Christmas decoration time again!

    My wife has been busy for weeks with her work readying for Christmas but once again I've asked for something a little different after last years' ones.

    Got some help but took me all night to stitch this thing

    You, sir, are a nutcase. An enthralling nutcase though, it must be said

    It's a Portal thing.

    What it is specifically, I have no idea (a gun maybe?)

    Geez the lack of knowledge here is disturbing!

    It's Wheatley

    Oh and yes, it's October, but my wife has been making and selling decorations for well over a month, unless she hires a bit of cheap Chinese labour that's how it has to be
