"HM Submariner Bill Hayne Collects the Turkey for Christmas Dinner: A Festive Tradition" As the holiday season approaches, HM Submariner Bill Hayne takes on a special mission - collecting the centerpiece of every Christmas dinner: the turkey. In this heartwarming snapshot from December 1952, titled "Christmas Turkey, " we catch a glimpse of Bill carefully selecting the perfect bird to grace his festive table. Little does he know that while he'll savor its succulent flavors later, there's another purpose for his visit to Beamish Farm - using mistletoe. As tradition dictates, no Christmas celebration is complete without stealing a kiss under this enchanting plant. Fast forward to Boxing Day in December 1994, and we meet Tracey the turkey at Beamish Farm once again. This charming creature has captured our hearts with her endearing presence as she struts around proudly after surviving yet another joyful feast. But let us not forget how these magnificent birds make their way onto our plates. On a cold winter day in 1951, turkeys were plucked by machinery - an efficient process that ensured they reached dining tables across the country. Venturing into Norfolk Turkey farm circa 1955 reveals an intriguing sight: a group of turkeys outside and inside a mansion's vacant front room. These elegant creatures seem almost regal against such grandeur as they prepare themselves for their destiny as delectable delights during this joyous season. Meanwhile, Nick the Turkey Dog keeps watchful eyes on his flock at Lower Mount Farm near Cookham Dean; his loyalty ensures their safety and well-being throughout their time on earth. Traveling back to Kent in 1989 introduces us to Teddah Marden Ranger Turkey farmer alongside his feathered companions. With dedication and expertise passed down through generations, Teddah nurtures these beautiful birds until they are ready to take center stage at countless family gatherings.
