I do not know who started this or when they first named December 26 as ' National Boxing Day ' . I just read it in the carrier Pigeon , a monthly free magazine that I receive. Check out www.theuptightsuburbanite.com. It is interesting to see that they have something for each day of the month of December . Subscribe to my blog or follow me if you wish to be reminded of all the interesting holiday.
Lise, thank you for the information about Boxing day. Happy Birthday to your daughter.
Good morning Gita. Giving gifts to servants trumps boxing with shoppers trying to return presents. Happy Holidays
Gita: Growing up in England, Boxing Day was always a day off and a good time to go shopping.

Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones Gita Bantwal Boxing day is a day many look forward to but I'm not one of them. Joy to those who find their treasures!
Great post! Merry Christmas Eve...I hope you have a great time with family!
Good morning, Gita --- Boxing Day doesn't have the same significance in this country but I think it's a pretty spirited event where it is celebrated.
Gita, this is one sport I do not like. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
I actually know about this one, Gita. Still a big day in the United Kingdom and refers to gifts (not the sport of boxing).
Gabe, I did not know. I will look it up for more information.
