Black Friday!

Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving in the US, is historically one of the busiest retail shopping days of the year. Many consider it the "official" beginning to the American Holiday Season. Most retailers will open very early and usually provide massive discounts on their products. How and why have I never been to the US on this weekend!!!

And another reason for it being black was the death of Russian dissidant Alexander Litvinenko. Incredibly intriguing, real James Bond, James le Carre stuff - almost makes you want to join MI5 - especially as they were advertising for spies last week.
