what is boxing day exactly? what does it mean? beside it being a public holiday which everyone loves, what is a boxing day? is it the day that you box all the presents you received the day before and didn't like and put them into storage? and why doesn't south australia get a day to box?
anyone? anyone? bueller?

Is this a rhetorical question? Because here's the answer anyway... it's Proclamation Day in South Australia. That gorgeous, and importantly non-convict-tainted FREE state was proclaimed on Dec 28th 1836. Yes, I said Dec 28th. But they use the next working day after Xmas as the holiday, which is usually Boxing Day. But sometimes it does fall on the 28th. Weird huh? Love you! Mel xox
