Is it time to sit back and relax? Spend Boxing Day watching footie with your feet up and eating cold turkey for breakfast, lunch and dinner? Or are you one of those people who despite having drained your wallet have yet to drain your energy, and you're itching so desperately to get out and do something? Well have no fear, the battwoman's here.
Hide those annoying 'beeping' toys off the kids, drag either the poor, no doubt, disheveled wife out of the kitchen, or the snoring couch potato from his pit and go burn off all of that Christmas cheer!
