Would be very grateful for help with the following:

1. Who said "The only blind person at Christmas time is he who has not Christmas in his heart".

2. Where did the custom of eating turkey at Christmas originate?

3. The expression "Turkey the tenth" comes from which sport?

4. According to which writer was a young Arthur "heaved up by the Atlantic Ocean into Merlin's Cave" at Tintagel.

I believe Henry VIII introduced it in this country rather than the traditional goose - fingers crossed
