Funny how they only ever mention Trim the cat as being his companion. Bloody brilliant animal, being able to handle the rigging on a 334 ton sloop while Flinders steered.

I say Cox'n, get me another cabin boy, this one's split!

It wasn't a cat, it was a monohull....

A quote from elsewhere:-

"our entirely forgettable PM posted this on his Instagram, blissfully unaware that the coffee mug said CUNT. The radio announcer was sacked at PM?s request! He?s currently hiding in Gemma?s house, inundated with new job offers from media!"

Any of you fuckers heard of Willem Janszoon or Dirk Hartog? Just saying...

Or the French, Indonesians, Malays, Arabs and Chinese - but we are talking about Scomo and his Cook/English fetish.

Not to mention Abel Tasman. If it wasn't for him there would be no Tasmania.

What about the aborigines, anybody heard of them?

They didn't officially exist back then. The British declared Australia to be "terra nullius" (uninhabited) which wasn't overturned until 1992!

WTH, there's a place near Australia called Tasmania?

Which is why I put English in bold when discussing the first WA settlement.

On a brighter note, I've picked up a slab of Winx Draught, hey Hooksey!

This matter has now been settled (cheers)

I hate cats that climb to the top of the ladder so early in the season!

Great goal by an ex Swan though, we should have kept him.
