Why does Christmas fall on Monday not Tuesday in 2017?
Let's agree that the current year, 2012, began on a Sunday.
Then last Christmas, 25.12.2011, fell on Sunday, exactly a week earlier.
Now, 25.12.2017, is exactly six years later. Each of those six years contains 52 weeks and one day; except the two intervening leap years (2012 and 2016), which contain one day more. This adds up to 312 weeks and eight days or, in other words, 313 weeks and one day.
Disregarding the even weeks, Christmas Day of 2017, falls one day of the week later than does Christmas Day of 2011: Namely, on the Monday.
