A Boxing Day special with Brian Cox and Brian Eno whoever Brian Cox is... ehmm, and I think Boxing Day is the 26th? |

I'm assuming it's the same Brian Cox that used to be a musician with D-Ream and is now the cherubic face of BBC Scientific programmes; he's quite an engaging fellow - a professor with the knack of explaining complicated things in a simple and entertaining manner. He recently did a "talk" tour in America and one of Teresa's friends went to see him. So, him and Eno should be an interesting cerebral match. |

Hi Rendezvous, thank you! That sounds quite interesting, indeed. And meanwhile I've also found some interesting explanations as to why the day after Christmas is called Boxing Day in the UK... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/christmas/0/boxing-day-2016-what-is-it-and-why-do-we-celebrate-it/ |

You're welcome Lonely Dreamer. Strange coincidence that Teresa asked me a while ago about Boxing Day and I sent her a similar explanation to the examples in the article....although in my castle I spend the day throwing boxfuls of frozen manure from my stables at my shoemaker and cumerbund maitre d.
