World Calendar Day

Boxing Day

The Test cricket starts at the MCG. The Sydney to Hobart yacht race starts in the harbour. The sales start online at midnight. And every Australian who ate too much yesterday is on the couch watching cricket they would not normally watch because it is Boxing Day and that is what you do.
