You're Finnish (assuming your profile tells the truth) why are you opening presents already.

Should be those damned Australians making threads like this.

What you mean?

24.12.2009 19:38 here.

Because Christmas Day is on the 25th, and you are detailing your presents as if you had opened them.

I don't know what I have missed but in Finland  its 24 day when you do traditional things of Christmas (precents,food etc)..

24th is Christmas Eve, 25th is Christmas day.... I don't suppose it really makes any difference, but is it different in Finland?

Or is it just different custom, as in you still class 25th as Christmas day, but you open presents etc on Christmas eve?

In Lithuania, Germany, Portugal, Switzerland, Austria, Hungary, Estonia, Finland, Denmark, Sweden, Iceland, Norway, Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Colombia and the Dominican Republic, among others, this is the day that presents are exchanged and opened. In some of these countries, presents are delivered to children by Santa Claus, personified by an adult dressed up as Santa who comes knocking on the door.

Don't you learn something like that in school ?

 

Ye, its a well known fact that the date was pulled out of somebodies arse so it doen't really matter which day it is celebrated.
