Quote:24th = Christmas for Americans and Europeans
25th = Christmas for the British
.. if I'm not mistaken
24th = "Christmas eve"
25th = "Boxing day"
26th = "Christmas day"
in Great Britain, no?
24 Christmas Eve
25 Christmas Day ("Christmas")
26th Boxing Day (Canada and UK as I recall)
And then there are the 12 days of Christmas, ending in Ephihpany on 6 January. I had an epihpany, some years back, and got married on the 7th of January. The nice thing was, the decorations from the Yule season were still up in the Church, it was lovely.
Happy Christmas, as Bob Cratchet would say to Ebeneezer Scrooge. :D
