It's great to be back on TFP (v.4)
On TFP v.3, someone started a hometown photo thread. It was great. Who was that? They shall be credited and thanked here.

I searched for pictures from my town, and what do I get?

I was not aware of any horror in my town... much less one concerning squirrels.

Thanks Junchbailey, but it wasn't my idea. I just remembered it was a great post on the last TFP.

If it is something bad then it wasn't me. There were no witnesses, I checked.

bundy 06-23-2003 07:29 PM

well, as i said before, i´m originally from Norfolk Island.

although its still an Australian Territory, it has its own flag and its own legislative council.

heres the flag...
<p><img src="http://www.ausflag.com.au/flags/images/ni.gif" /></p>

like i said previously, the island was used to imprison the worst criminals that England sent down under.
during the second occupation of British convicts and soldiers, the island became known as the Hell in the Pacific.
in 1855 the British criminals and soldiers abandoned the island, and were sent to Port Arthur in Tasmania

they left all the buildings as they were, and tthey can be seen here...
<p><img src="http://www.singlestravel.com.au/images/Norfolk%20Island.jpg" /></p>

in the above photo, the main building was the barracks for the soldiers, note the huge wall.
the nice house next to it was an officers house. there are a few more of these houses further along Quality Row.
the large walled in area closer to the ocean is one of the remaining prison yards.

since the coast line of the island is too rough and harsh...

<p><img src="http://www.aulich.com.au/images/norfolk-island.jpg" /></p>

no boat is able to dock. so all goods must be shipped in from the freighters in smaller boats...

<p><img src="http://www.modhist.mq.edu.au/norfolk.jpg" /></p>

this process is interesting to see, because if a large package is needed on shore, they have to strap a couple of these boats together.
most things like cars on the island are really small because of this.

norfolk is a small, quiet island, with a rural flavour (cows have right of way!).
2000 people live in a community where you never have to lock your car or house, and you always acknowledge people and say hello.

in 1789, Fletcher Christian led a mutiny on the English ship The Bounty.
the men of this mutiny fled to Pitcairn Island, where they lived for many years.
in 1856, the Pitcairners arrived at Norfolk, and have survived their ever since.

:lol: It refers to some post of yours a while back, where you were wondering where your donor tag was. I replied and donated more money for you to get your tag back. I guess it didn't work...
It's also a link to the donation info.
