I couldn't decide. I had the Hidden Cherry pudding about five or six years ago, when my wife was alive, and it was delicious, but now I've spotted the Maple & Pecan, so I've ordered one of those too. I got the turkey crown, for mum and I, delivered yesterday. Sainsbury's didn't have the "small" one I ordered, so they substituted a "medium" instead. That's 2 - 2.3 Kg instead of 1.5 - 1.9 Kg... for the two of us.
I feel a lot of Turkey sandwiches coming on, along with Turkey curry, Turkey stew, Turkey salad...
The good news is, I'll also have plenty of left-over stuffing, pigs in blankets, veg... 
I'm now just hoping the damn thing fits in my slow cooker, otherwise I'll have to take a chainsaw to it.
Just the fresh veg and the fresh custard/cream to get in now, and then I'm all set to create a Christmas dinner on a cooker that's electric, where mine is gas, and that I use once a year, at Christmas. I'm currently watching footy on the PC, trying to work out the optimal timings for everything, and writing this. (Who says men can't multitask?) That, though is why I cook my Turkey overnight on Christmas Eve eve, let it cool, and then carve off what I need for the two of us (plus a few Boxing Day slices for mum) and put it in a roasting tray with gravy and reheat it in the oven.
MMMMMMMM PUDDINGS
