  • So, I don’t know all about Boxing Day! As a matter of fact I never heard of it till today. And if I had I probably wouldn’t remember it anyway. The closest thing I ever heard of was the Boxer Rebellion and now I can’t remember what that was either!

    Ha ha, Good one Paulette! I should have put “Boxer Rebellion” as one of the quiz choice (wrong answers)!

    Richard, thanks so much for this fun & informative quiz! I grew up saying “Happy Boxing Day,” a tradition learned from my Mom, but I’ll bet even she has no idea about the charity boxes. I always assumed it was about pugilists. We’re going to fill some boxes and drop them off today!
