Container DIV won't take full height of page

I have a webpage that's coded in HTML5 CSS3.

http://hatchards.harryfear.com/harryfear/html5/

In Firefox, Safari, Chrome (at least), the first container div (i.e. BODY > DIV), will not take the full height of the body.

Why?

Because there is padding on the div element. So, essentially, it is taking the full height.

Thanks, I tried this, but it's still behaving the same way :s

I've tried removing all padding.
