Boxing Day...


Like many families we will be celebrating BOXING DAY today (26th Decembre)!
For those overseas it is a chance to get together with loved ones and remember this very English tradition and for those of us abroad, it is the opportunity to blend the new and the old!
And since I am always asked what exactly is Boxing Day, here follows as good an explanation as any! (HERE).


All the best to you and yours,

  8. Hi Noelle, thanks for visiting my blog and always leaving such kind comments.

    I read the link to the boxing day information with interest - my daughter recently asked me why it's called boxing day and I couldn't answer her!
