OP >'ve always understood it to be the first working day after Christmas rather than the first day after Christmas. Am I wrong?
Here, the 26th is officially called Boxing Day, and is a statutory holiday, unless it falls on a weekend, in which case the next working day is given as a holiday in its stead. That replacement holiday is not called Boxing Day though.
