Yesterday was ANZAC day. This being a holiday similar to Memorial Day, commemorating the first military action taking by Australian and New Zealand troops in Gallipoli. Every year, to celebrate this momentous event, Australians across the land and gather in pubs to play the game of Two-up. The basic gist of this game is flipping two coins in a circle and betting with random people in a pub. It's quite an interesting idea, that to celebrate those who have bought and died for their country they get drunk and bet on a coin toss. But no judgment here.
I ended up spending around 7 hours in a pub yesterday. Egads. I'm off.
