    Cool [​IMG]

    I thought about trying once to expalain the difference between the Flag for New Zealand with its red stars and the Australian flag with the white stars, but figured it would be hard to explain.

    There is always an ongoing debate about changing the flag in Australia to remove the Union Jack. Some want a Green and Gold flag in a new design, yet others want to retain the current flag in honour of those who died under its colours in the various wars.

    Quite a strong political topic in Australia!!!

    The crims the English sent to Aus came from ALL parts of the UK, so we remember them all, not just the courts that convicted them :D
