This year, I have to work Christmas Eve (just finished) and Boxing Day - personally feel it should be outlawed.

Glad there's no trains on Boxing Day, even if it means I wouldn't have been able to get to Cardiff if I weren't working, they work 363 days of the year - that's enough!

Shut up, you bally buffoon. No trains run on Christmas Day and Boxing Day and that's been the case for as long as I can remember.

If football clubs cared about fans, they'd have a day off, too.
