Well, we don't actually celebrate it in the UK but that doesn't make the greeting any less :)

Amazing! Who'da thought that a holiday, started by puritan pilgrims in America's surviving through a harsh winter, wouldn't be celebrated world wide? :p

Seriously? How f*cked up is our education system if you didn't know that?!


Oh, Happy Thanksgiving, BTW. And please stop calling it Turkey Day. That's kinda annoying. :p

We generally use Christmas & Boxing Day* for that purpose.

*which you don't have, IIRC

Boxing Day (for reference) is the 26th December; it's basically another holiday day, although a few shops do open then. Basically, you spend the whole day hoovering up the leftovers from Xmas Day, get drunk and fall asleep on the couch (plus, no need to visit relatives!).

The name comes from Victorian times IIRC; it was on the 26th that the churches would open and distribute the contents of their poorboxes.

I heard it enough in the last 2 days, to resign myself to kicking anyone that says it anymore...
