@amandal boxing day is the day after christmas. It's part of the christmas holidays. It's what we call a bank holiday which is a national holiday. Wehave about 6 of them during the year. Most people automatically get bank holidays off work.
Lovely! My partner dragged me out for a nice refreshing, long walk as well! Now I am truly cream crackered and need to sit in front of a roaring fire with something alcoholic and a box of chocs - just for medicinal purposes (you understand!)
