The tradition started when tradesmen, servants and the poor would be presented with Christmas boxes, also at mass collections would be made also to help with Christmas boxes hence the name Boxing Day. Sometimes called Stephens Day in celebration of Saint known for their kindness to the poor 😊. Great video by the way building memories doing what you.

I couldn't eat all the turkey leg, was so full and it wasn't the best part, too tough and not much nice meat to begin with. Pleased you and your wife enjoyed the singing, was a bit monged at the time with the drink. Hopefully we will be out again soon in the not too distant future, ATB for 2024.

Love it! Geeat vid Happy New Year and ATB for 2024 P.S I found this........ it’s thought the name came from when Queen Victoria was on the throne. “In Victorian times, the wealthy would box up items they no longer needed to give to the poor," explains House Beautiful. “It was a day where servants would be given time off and thanked for their hard work with a 'special box' of treats. “The servants would then head home and use the 26th to spend with their own families - and share the presents they had just received.”

All the best mate 🍻 The name comes from a time during Queen Victoria's reign when the rich used to box up gifts to give to the poor. Boxing Day was traditionally a day off for servants - a day when they received a special Christmas box from their masters.

Boxing Day is called Boxing Day because in the distant past , people would put money donations for the poor in the Alms Box in Churches throughout the year , they then opened the Alms Box and handed it out the day after Christmas Day - that’s why it’s called Boxing Day.

Firstly, despite sharing the same name, it has nothing to do with the sport boxing. Rather, Boxing Day got its name when Queen Victoria was on the throne. In Victorian times, the wealthy would box up items they no longer needed to give to the poor.1 Nov 2023 just though I'd send Christopher the information love that you guys get out so much and the bond you both have don't see that much nowadays as youngens tend to just play games all the best for 2024 you no it makes sense 😀
