So, while I'm glad for your link, that confirms what I had patiently explained you, and I realize that it is your twisted way to say «I'm sorry», I have to point out that in Milan not only you do not have a Boxing day (January 2nd? What is it, your mother's birthday, which makes you consider it a bank holiday?), neither you do have a tradition of sale starting the day after Christmas. Technically called, Boxing day. Hope everything is clear, now, but I do accept that you will have to say something more so that you can go to your friends and claim you had the last word and are indeed a real macho man. So go ahead, say whatever you like about the calendar, and I promise not to (furtherly) point out you're talking nonsense. Have a very merry new year, with all the bank holidays you can get. And please don't forget the crash course you promised me.

“As 26th falls on a Saturday, the Boxing Day bank holiday is on 28 December.

Here in Milano we have a similar situation…official boxing day will be jan 2nd but yesterday V Giornate’s Coin was a puttanaio

But you do have a point for your confusion: when Boxing day falls on the weekend, the bank holiday is moved to the following Monday. This, though, does not stop the 26th, the official Boxing day, from being the first day for sale in shops, as you would have undoubtedly found out had you visited Harrods or similar on Saturday. Thanking you for your kind attention, I hope you'll come back and visit us soon Dear Mr Pensabene, while waiting for you to teach me (I’m always keen to learn), I’m glad to inform you that Boxing Day is indeed on the 26th.
