We rejoice in being a penal colony!

Imagine the delicious irony of being sent from England as a punishment and then discovering Australia's brilliant weather, awesome beaches, massive gold/ coal reserves and Elle MacPherson!

:lol: Yeah us Brits laugh about that all the time.........., while we sit on our grey, rainy and overcrowded little rock in the North Sea! Our ancestors over here really weren't that smart! :lol:
