Drop everything and get to the central Italian village of Macerata Feltria. Now.
Still here? If you haven't learned to trust us yet, you will soon. We're urging you to head to Italy because they've just made a 17,600-pound chocolate sculpture of Big Ben as part of their local Christmas food festival.
So what, you might say, but we're not suggesting you need to get there in time to see choc-Big-Ben: at the end of the week, the townsfolk are going to slice up the giant sculpture and give out the chocolate to whoever's hanging around. Daytime temperatures in this part of Italy are close to freezing at the moment so the chocolate should still be in great condition for your own sticky fingers. What are you still reading for?
