Do you celebrate Australia day on the wrong day?

Not really. Australia Day commemorates the arrival of the First Fleet at Sydney Cove in New South Wales on 26 January 1788. It is the date that Captain Arthur Phillip raised the British flag and thereby claimed the entire east coast of Australia for Great Britain. Some may think Australia Day should actually be celebrated on 18 January, as this is when the First Fleet arrived in Botany Bay. However, the fleet did not stay there and the convicts did not disembark.

Has someone landed the 1080?

As far as I know, somebody has landed a 1080. There was a snowboarder (can't remember his name) who did it on television. And for skateboarders, I was reading articles and I think it was actually Tony Hawk who landed a 1080... Please correct me if I'm wrong, but this is just from what I've heard.


What caused the Gallpoli war to go wrong?

From a New Zealander's point of view, the war at Gallipoli went wrong because: 1. There was a lack of planning involved (on Churchills part). 2. They landed on the wrong beach because they had bad navigators and inaccurate maps. 3. When they landed, they did not advance quickly enough so the Turks got the high land.
