Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat, that big red suited anti-burglar is sizing up your chimney. But without decorations he may sleigh on by. And without suitably geeky decorations he might not know what sort of high tech kit to leave you.
Whether you're a Trekkie, a Game of Thrones fan or just a nerd with a passion for the periodic table, we've got something for you. Marvel at the Christmas joy, why not make your neighbours jealous with a lawn ornament or two? Or geek out your Christmas tree with nerdy lights and ornaments, there is bound to be something for everyone, well if you like geek things.
