There must be Pud

It's not Christmas unless there is pud.  We heard rumours it is 40° today so we decided last night that lighting the gas for four or five hours today would not be a good thing.  So we started at 5:00pm and had it hanging in the shower at 9:30pm last night.  We have never tried the 'make it on Christmas morning then eat it in the afternoon approach' as there was too much going on.  I think it was Julie who said her Mum keeps it in the fridge. That is a lot of fridge space and doesn't that mean reheating is a lot harder.  Since we have been here the shower head of choice has been the upstairs one and trying to carry a boiling dripping cloth full of hot steamy pud up two flights of stairs is a tricky business.
