Christmas Pudding stage 2

With all the ingredients mixed, it’s ready for seven hours of steaming.
 
I always feel guilty about leaving it too late to make the Christmas pudding. But according to Prof Google the correct time to make the pud is on the last Sunday before Advent. That’s ‘Stir it Up Sunday’, when everyone is supposed to stir the pudding and make a wish. This year Stir it Up Sunday was 24 November, so I was close.
