Black Friday or Red Friday?

I must admit it had passed me by. Black Friday that is. It
was only on the actual day that I noticed it, so I guess I can be grateful that
I managed to avoid most of the hype.

Apparently, it’s the day after Thanksgiving in the States. I’m
pretty sure we don’t celebrate Thanksgiving over here, so it’s sad that we
decided to import the day after. Or did we?

Of course, it’s not ‘our’ import at all - ‘us’ being the
Great British population. It’s the retailers. Another opportunity to make some
money. Another ‘sale’. And sadly, we fall for it.

I much prefer Red Friday. Instead of needless taking, it’s
about selfless giving. One man who gave all.



Black Friday? Bad Friday. Red Friday? Good Friday.
