A survey of 2,000 UK adults found four in 10 wish they had different Boxing Day plans, with 64 per cent doing the same things year in, year out. More than a third of adults normally host or visit close family for a second day of celebrations while one in 10 are usually dragged around the sales. And one in five build up to putting together another big Christmas dinner . But exactly 50 per cent agree their 'perfect' December 26 would be spent in their local watching endless games of footie. A quarter would rather spend their time meeting up with friends and 16 per cent would just like to curl up with the dog all day. Chris Conchie, head of sport at pub company and brewer Greene King, which commissioned the research to celebrate a huge Boxing Day of sport, said: "While Christmas is certainly a time for family, after being stuck in the house for days on end many people feel a break to see friends in the pub will be welcomed by the 26th December. "Boxing Day is a great opportunity to escape for a few hours and catch up on the sport, and more than 900 Greene King pubs will be showing the Boxing Day Premier League fixtures on Amazon Prime, so we're expecting to see lots of post-Christmas sports fans. "If you don't normally visit the pub over Christmas this could be a break from the norm, and the perfect way to save getting stuck in a festive rut after the big day is over." According to the study, some of Brits' biggest Boxing Day grumbles include enduring the same old films on TV (21 per cent), the house being a mess (23 per cent) and feeling a desperate need to exercise (13 per cent). Another 11 per cent complain about being forced to play endless board games like Monopoly all day long. The same amount struggle to maintain cordial relationships with family members, while one in 20 get fed up with having to spend all day building complicated kids' toys. More than a tenth also confess to experiencing 'cabin fever' after spending too long rattling around the same house. It also emerged adults will spend nearly four hours slumped in front of the TV on Boxing Day, after cleaning for an hour and a half. They'll also have to drive for half an hour to visit seven different relatives, friends or neighbours, according to the OnePoll survey. For Brits who are able to escape to the pub this Boxing Day, 14 per cent hope to actually spend all day there. They'd like to sink four pints, get through four portions of chips and three packs of nuts while they catch the seasonal sports. Chris Conchie added: "There are loads of great sportin
