HAPPY AUSTRALIA DAY to my fellow Aussie Akains, and to all members who today are Honouring Aussies, 26/01/2016.
In case you don't know, the 28 of January 1788 the Fist fleet from Great Britain loaded with convicts landed at Botany bay, little did they know they were the start of a great nation, as many of them became farmers and graziers, today besides Anzac Day is the only time most of us fly the Flag.
I fly the flag day and night Kent,,I have a Flag and kangaroo tattoo,,it never leaves my side..>>>>>>><<<<<<<..

Tom, What do you think of the flags possibly to vote on -- Bring on the Boxing Kangaroo, at least it is unique to Australia, log f good onthe centre flagpole at the Olympics.
One of the greatest things we can do is learn from mistakes of older countries,,older countries hold the history of their country close to their heart,people have married under it ,opened governments ,and died under it,,imagine the uproar you would get if someone suggested to replace" Old Glory" in the USA,,our flag is our heritage and should remain until some country blows us off the face of the map,,as for republic..i think we should ask why it is so important to some people to want a republic,,our governor general is an Australian head of state,,and we run our own race and make our own laws,,so why is it so important to become a republic..somebody wants to gain a hell of a lot more than what they are telling us..all the best Guys..AUSSIE RULES on this day..>>>>>>>><<<<<<<<..
Kent & Terry.As for the flag,I'm OK with it.I actually fought under it.As for head of state.......Aussie,Aussie,Aussie.In my humble opinion Mr,Abbott should not have been Prime Minister.He was not born here.That's just my opinion.
Back to the flag.I'd be OK with the Southern Cross on a blue background.
And Terry...No disrespect to the Queen intended.She's done a good job But I think we're old enough to be our own nation in every sense.

Tom i agree with some of what you say,,i was not happy with abbot towards the end,,but to say he was not Aussie,?????,born to an Aussie mother and uk father,came to Aussie at the age of 3,,and if he did not portray what it means to be an Aussie,,then i do not know what an Aussie is,,All the best mate..>>>>>>>><<<<<<..

Much appreciated SunnyB, it your day as well as the convicts all came from the U.K. -- you know that is where the word POM'e' came from 'Prisoner of Mother England.'
Well I didn't know that was where the word poms came from, now it will have a different meaning every time I here it. I always thought it was something insulting, we live and learn.
