Down Under (Long)

[BrianJ]

Well they chose my ancestors...both sides were shipped out, now that makes me just about as Aussie as you can get. I am pretty proud of that. Only over the past few years has research been carried out that sort of says that all was not well in choosing "criminals" for the development of this great country. Funny but it seems some "trumped up" charges were laid against , bricklayers, stonemasons, farmers, millers etc....bloody Poms !!!!

Every 5th One

Funny how they didn't send any footballers.

Re: Every 5th One

We did send soccer players but they were too pooftah to survive and breed.

We also sent rugby and cricket players, who did prosper. Unfortunately.

Now were trying to tempt them back by discovering their 18th Century grannies.

Aussie Rules

Don't the refs look sweeties with their trilbys and those natty little white coats - look like they should be selling chickens in the local market.

Re: Aussie Rules

Are there any rules?
