Happy Boxing Day, everyone! Aren’t you glad we no longer live in the Dark Ages, when people used to put on boxing gloves and fight others who got gifts they wanted but didn’t get from Santa?

We’ll see the people can predict the future! :-)

If you think it’ll be William and Kate’s first child, why not take a vote at how long they should wait in my poll earlier today?
