Well, think of all the money the Aus government is saving.
Also don't forget that the Aus. army has fought with great distinction all over the world.
As a Brit living in the US all I can say is bring back the Empire!

Hi Vernon, it looks like you're going to have to trace your own family tree back to him. This is already around 8 generations away so you might have a fair bit of work ahead. On an off-chance I did a quick search of the internet and I was surprised to find that someone else is looking into the history of Samuel. It seems he was born around 1808 and transported for housebreaking in 1834. See archiver.rootsweb.com/th/read/Bristol_and_Somerset/2002-11/1037005252 (about half way down the page) Ray

That mural is fascinating and so unexpected. I thought it was worth the 500 mile round trip on its own! I'll be emailing you soon.
