Epic mate there are certain meals that tick all the boxes for me. This is NOT one of them
joking. The "apple sauce, and apple and sage stuffing balls." was an unnecessary but a wonderful clincher. I was sold at the mention of Suet Pastry and Roast Pork. Bravo
Going to Malpensa airport in a short time, I have a flight to London. That’s my plan(e) today.
I’ll stay in London all the week for business

I'm not sure I can answer that because even in the tiny UK there are many regional interpretations, as Yorky has mentioned.
Be careful. Wear your mask and wash your hands a lot. We want you back safely.

The term 'pudding' is interchangeable with dessert or sweet (depending on the region) as a generic term to describe the sweet course eaten after a main course. In this context, ice cream could be called pudding, for instance.
More specifically, a pie is topped with pastry - shortcrust or puff, whereas a pudding generally isn't. Dishes that involve suet, such as my apple top hat, or sponge, bread etc. would never be called pies - they are puddings. Puddings are generally stodgy type things, so a piece of gateau would not be a pudding, although you may eat it for pudding. Getting clearer?
I will now wait for the rest of the UK to point out that I have got it completely wrong!
Oh, very kind thought from you, thank you Casey
Yep, I’ve never stopped from wearing masks and washing/sanitising my hands everyday and keep social distancing and it would be a non-sense to stop doing this when travelling abroad
I’m in Malpensa right now waiting boarding, many controls, lots of desolation. That’s it
I just call everything I'm served in the UK "pudding" and it seems to cover it.
