Now it's 'Cyber Monday' invented to encourage people to shop online, it's marketing gone crazy, at least electronic shopping is unlikely to result in fisticuffs in Macy's.
Yesterday I diligently made my Christmas pudding. I mixed it 3 times East to West (so did J and R) covered it in a double layer of pleated grease proof paper then foil then left it in my Crock Pot on low overnight for 13 hours as per online instructions. I have no idea if it is cooked or not. What I can see of it looks like Christmas pudding and it smells just like Mum's. In fact I unwrapped it today (in order to wrap it all over again) inhaled a big sniff of it and it was magically transported back to many Christmas Days, I hadn't previously thought what an individually Christmassy smell a pudding has but for an instant I had definitely defied the arrow of time.
