One of my favourite annual traditions since starting my PhD: Biking the canal route from the Edinburgh airport into the city to catch the train to Aberdeen 😃 (and it wasn’t even raining this year!)
A red Brompton folding bike, loaded up with a front bag and yellow duffel on the rear rack, leaned up against a railing on the entrance to a canal-adjacent pathway. Bike route signs, green trees, the canal, and a bridge in the background.

Advent is near. I argue in my book (second-best selling of all my books, but not very influential so far!) that it is the duty of the church to resist premature Christmas promotion, 99% commercial in its origin and power. A rigorous Advent can be our liturgical and personal resistance.
