The Poms did get some things wrong,
Forgive my ignorance....who are the Poms?

Is it true that Australia was a penal colony and settled by their descendents? Or did you mention they asked for more Europeans to come and settle there?

Australia would make an interesting topic if anyone feels inclined to do that.

The Poms are what Australians called the English, be they the people who originated from England or not, many of such people even full blood English do not look up to the Poms 100% mainly in regards to the Wars as they did not truly respect the way Australians were treated in the Wars and they did not look up to the Toffs and English Army totally. and they would not salute them. The Aussies just called them Pommy B-------. Maybe from the Welsh and Scots and Irish hatred of the English as well.
But myself growing up from the 60's all i heard was all of them being called Pommy B------- by Aussies but that could also be used as a term of endearment as well tho.

The UK tried to as well as it could to bring it's own people to Australia, as it's fitting that one would and create another UK founded on the same principles for sure, but it could not get enough from the UK to settle and many who came here wanted to go back home but they did not have the money to go back home.
Lots of Irish were sent to Australia.
And yes it was a dumping ground for criminals from the UK penal colony.

My first descendants to Australia were rich Jews from the Hanover Empire. so there were people from all over the World who came back in the 1800's But the masses of such peoples came after WW2 but most people only believe such only came after WW2, i was taking to a Doctor from India and he seen my Sir name and said Oh Jewish directly ! lucky the Nazis did not get your family, i said we came to Australia before Hitler was even born mate, but he outright rejected that. Some people have stupid ideas stuck in their head, why i do not know, as i have come across such time to time as they think everyone came after WW2.

My forefathers have said that their was no roads but tracks and they walked the tracks and swam across creeks in what is now called Queensland.

The reason why after WW2 Australia needed to populate or die, so the rush was on to really kick start and create a economy worthy to bring people here as well.

My Mum came here in 1957 from Denmark because her dad was wanted and called down, so as to help build in big construction as he went everywhere in the world doing big jobs with 100 so people working for his company, then he would go back home to Denmark but the Aussies would always say in first meeting him, so you are a New Australian ! and he would say, i will never be a new Australian or an old Australian, they called him names like Wog etc all the time but such never bothered him at all what so ever. He Loved Denmark and bagged Australia and Aussies no end but also liked some of the quality's in Aussies as well. but he was not a heavy drinker like most Aussies were back then. and spoke English fluently but the Aussie slang ways he despised as ninny's.
He did not want his daughter living down here or us her children, because of the threat of Communist Russia.

So the era's have changed over the times and one must take note regarding the era to truly have a handle on what one is on about regarding the peoples challenges in them times, but History is very lacking on reality of the era and people nowadays have a stupid outlook that is just so pathetic shallow that it's just getting portrayed from a point of view that is total rubbish and a 5yo perspective that is off with the pixies ! bagging our forefathers who built this Nation and who is bagging them, well the 5yo mentality is ! for They don't have a clue !

We had a left Government say sorry to the Abo's but such is not truly worthy at all from a logical perspective, but is a total shallow display of outright bastard acts that is typical of Socialist game play.
How can one say sorry for another or on others behalf and think such is worthy at all ! it was like giving one a 3 dollar note in fact, it's false a counterfeit ! something only a shallow fool would swallow. but they get away with such because the MSM is a whore. such can say any 2 faced dribble and get away with it.

Ah! @Reggie Belafonte you seem to have many axes to grind with your agro.

You are still a pup to me who carries a forest instead of the usual small chip of wood on your shoulder. As with many people groups, there is always some "bad" among the "good" who make up those people groups.

I have just travelled through the centre of Australia on the Ghan Train which only provided a glimpse of what the country is like. The "news" people present a very slanted picture of the actual situations in the Alice and many of the other places in the outback. They present that there is a lot of agro and violence in the Alice, but the people there also tell us that it is a very safe place to live.

In the 1600's an explorer, Pedro Fernandez De Quiros, (who you can read about at this link, < Maritime Exploration of Australia: Pedro Fernandez De Quiros>), declared that Australia was the "Great South Land of the Holy Spirit.".

What I got out of my Ghan Train trip was that he was totally wrong. Australia is in fact the "Great south land of the unholy spirit," with the "dream time" stories all speaking of the serpent that the Aboriginals tell, who was responsible for the landscape and the "law" in which they could live.

In Australia there is lots of spiritual oppression that manifests itself in many forms. Sadly many "Christian" believe these "Dream time stories" and give silent assent to them and come under the oppressive power of the "serpent spirit" that has operated over Australia for many centuries that goes way back in time.

Ranting about the situation that we find ourselves in, is not the right way forward, but Holy Spirit led prayer is.

One of the stories that was told to us is that the "Elders" of the mob that lived in and in the Kakadu region had experienced what radiation poisoning did to the people in that area many years ago before the white man came. When women became pregnant they did not go into those areas at all because of the possible effect of their exposure to the radiation from the rocks in the ground in certain areas of Kakadu.

Did they understand fully what the cause and effect was from radiation poisoning? Probably. Did they need to have the so-called scientific understanding that we "white" people rely on today to make decisions with.

They had the nuance to respect the rocks and what the rocks were capable of doing and so they acted wisely with respect to those rocks.

Our dream journeys often take us out of comfort zones and in doing so we can learn from our experiences on vacation and grow in our wisdom.

Shalom

Thanks. So they were the original settlers? The prisoners?

Btw, years ago I was in the travel field for awhile. Never got to Australia though.

But I remember hearing about Cooper Pedy. Isn't that where they mine opals and it is so hot that they have to live underground? That was amazing to me.

I am not ranting just stating the fact of the matter in fact. no aggro !

It Looks like you know bugger all that's typical of most city person, like my mate up the road who has not a clue of who is who regarding Abo's, he has a Islander half pommy mate but does not understand the difference between who is what, because he is a typical shallow lefty who can not see past his own nose, just like a good mate of mine who married a full blood Samoan woman and i and her got on fine for i knew what she was on about but her hubby was a total dipstick numb skull on such issues, for he could only be influenced by the Media as his God ! he was brain dead, as the truly logical part of the brain did not function for him to think things out for himself. nor did he care, he just seek regarding the majority as his comfort zone.

Nothing wrong with the Abo's before Cook and the UK took over one could say as they had their life down pat. strict as Laws they followed or you were out !

I grew up with the Abo's mate and i am talking about full bloods or half cast and islanders and their is a difference, this era has changed regarding them years, as most are all white claiming to be Abo's now. with no true regard to the full blood Abo's, but full blood Abo's are kicked to the side and it's the white so called Abo slobs pushing an agenda always, The Voice is a Socialist run agenda that many true Abo's know is nonsense. but they are silenced into submission. dominated over by cunning Nazi type Socialist running a political agenda that has been going on for years. not to mention such do not want to inform anyone of the true details in fact but run on a big lie campaign all Tax payer funded show and extortion regarding big company's to fund the Yes side for if they don't, they fear the ramifications. screaming racist etc !

My Brother lived and worked in Alice and we worked and lived in Darwin and Katherine and North QLD in the 80's bro and we would go out 4x4 driving everywhere. seen it, reality mate for a fact, where most would fear to go.

Most full blood Abo's out in the sticks would not even bother to talk to people the majority of white people not to mention they do not get on with other blacks for that mater. But they will talk to me because i understand them and can get on well with them, because i can talk with them and not at them ? Like every PM Government or City people do in fact, only talk at them !

The Spirits ? yes people are guided by such be it seen as good or bad or something other.
But the Holy Spirit is set apart different to the others.
All people are religious regardless what one may claim and they may have Spirits ? but Christ Jesus is not about religion, for religion is not the foundation Stone, for That is the Holy Spirit, the Well that we drink from as we are his body and he our Head their of. so we do not get mixed up in religious spirits ? for they are not the Key ! for they can mislead one ? but the Holy Spirit is pure !

I am for looking after the true full blood Abo peoples first and foremost, the rest are another issue in it's self. and one has to draw the line regarding who is truly who, because if it does not, it is doomed to fail the true people as it always does politically ? Politically with anything is always fails badly, why because that's the nature of Governments for they are trash at governance truly ! the issues set in such a way are so plastic and distance that they do not relate for a people regarding the people at hand, it's sterile ? as such it shafts people in fact and gets away with such ! They shafted my industry regarding Subcontracting issues years ago because the right wing greed Liberal Party was only feeding the top end of town, and never had any regard for us and nor did the Socialist. They all worked against us in fact, clearly undermining us.
It's the same on so many issues, that They both just clearly play the people for fools.

The Governments have brought this all on, they have failed ! the two big political Party's are trash in fact and they are only getting worse, because the freedom of speech is being undermined and people can not speak the truth because the truth hurts nowadays this has become a critical game play tactic set by the Satanist to empower and dominate over the people. For such Childishness that will fail badly, for the Truth is not in them.
Now one in business running the show, has to be on the ball and as such he may have to call the shots and what he may say may not come across as nice ! but that is not the issue, The issue is that things are run ship shape like, not catering for shabby cry baby's who can't handle the truth or reality. for such as they are what sink ships ? for no one is at the wheel !

England imprisoned people for even the smallest infractions, infractions like stealing bread because folks were so hungry. They shipped these people off to Australia to aid in its colonisation....and yes, Cooper Pedy has opals and in the past before air conditioning, living underground was a practical approach to dealing with the heat.....although some today still maintain the novelty.

Ah @Reggie Belafonte, it seems that you just live down the road from me, as you express the many issues that you have with others. You say that I am a townie, but we have never met to be able to form that opinion of each other.

You claim that you are only presenting facts, but the agro in your posts is very easy to discern from what you post.

This pic with words says a lot for me: -

1689397621103.png

Grace extended smooths troubled waters. It is well in my soul as I reflect on the efforts that I undertook to raise and shape my children and grandchildren. Sometimes you win, while other times you fail.

Reggie it seems to me that your glass is dry as it is neither half empty or half full.

Now from where I live on the outskirts of Brisvegas, I cannot see your smoke signals polluting the night skys agitating the masses with your rhetorical displeasure of others.

People really do respond better when they receive encouragement and praise for what they do. Could I encourage you to find the best in others so that they will be blessed by you.

I agree with the above. It's always best to be kind. Treat others as we want to be treated.

This thread has strayed far from @Wynona original post. Why?

Why do some people feel the need to destroy a nice thread? Check yourselves. @Jay Ross -- I'm calling you out.

This one is about nice vacation spots. Take your personal beefs with one another to a land far away.


When I adventure to Israel, I plan to trek also through Jordan and Turkey. My dream trip would include ancient sites like Jerusalem, Caesarea, Petra and Gobekli Tepe.

Mr E:, it seems that you too like to take treads off topic and air your beefs with others.

What you said highlighted in purple in the quote of your previous post could have been left unpublished. Then you would have been only posting about your dream holiday.

People when they go on their dream holidays, sadly take all of their baggage with them.

A great holiday is one where you can grow in your relationship with God by pondering on the beauty that you can see whether it be forests of deserts, it is how your spirit responds that is really important.

On our recent Ghan trip, we went to a waterfall where people went swimming in the pool below the falls we were taken too, to visit. A few days later a 2.5 metre saltwater crocodile showed its displeasure that his new domain was being invaded by humans and so bit a man swimming to close to him.

The main food that the croc would have been eying off in that swimming pool would have been the young children swimming in the pool. They would have been the right size for it to eat.

The Ghan Rail trip was my wife's dream holiday to celebrate a special occasion for both of us.

My dream holiday is to do nothing exciting, so to speak, but to make the time to allow my mind to process the beauty of God's creation.

How we express that is different for each of us.

From what i gather from your post is that you have no real life experience with true Aboriginals in the sticks at all in fact. but that is the typical ignorance of most Australians and that is why we have all the problems because they are way too smug and get on their high horse dictating from a position that they know nothing truly about.
Why do we have the problems ? because of such like you in fact.
Why can i go and talk to true full blood Aboriginals and they love me for being direct honest free with them.

I met a full blood Aboriginal here in the city last year or so and he was yelling out in the street across from where i was waiting for the shop to open. so i went over to him and talked for hours and we got on so well, he said where he came from and was spun out that i knew the place, i know it well because i ride my dirt bike out their. Look he was having issues ! but he was in a pickle and i could talk to him on issues that most white people would have a spack attack on mentioning but this bloke was fine with all that because he was not stupid as he knew where i was coming from.
The next 2 weeks i seen him again as my wife and i were walking into the Church car park and we talked again.

It's like talking to people who live on the Land and you have some city person with you and it's like they are way out of tune having no idea, but in contempt ! for they think they know it all and that the one on the land is not worthy of a city person and the city person has no true regard of anyone outside of their little plastic world, so when it comes to people out on the Land or True Aboriginals the city person is way out of their depths in fact.
I have had my city mates bag my country mates as if they were a nothing ! but my country mates are much brighter than they could even fathom in reality.

I do not do the blessing, only God does that in fact.
But i do call out lies and deceptions when i see them, why because in my job only reality counts, i do not go about trying to be nice ? for that can create a trap ! Be open i say and do not suffer fools gladly.
Things that i have displeasure in, should be aired and not Kept under wraps. For hiding ones real face is an abomination that leads one astray or down the wrong track.
I may ask others what they think be it what ever, even out on out back bush tracks riding miles for nowhere, but i always keep true to myself and do not go with the flow regarding their maybes, so it's like you lot do not know where you truly are at, but i will ride about a bit more and i will find my bearings on that point and then understand where i am. i have had people in the Defense force lost looking at their Sat map and i have had to say look do't worry about that crap, if i have lead them, but they like to plot the points. so if they come out they have something to go by.

The glass is where it's at regardless i have found.

Sadly most people look at all the other people as a plastic issue, because they are to shallow to bother to understand the reality's, so it's superficial subject that lacks depth and they are content with that, because ignorance is bliss.

From what i gather from your post is that you have no real life experience with true Aboriginals in the sticks at all in fact. but that is the typical ignorance of most Australians and that is why we have all the problems because they are way too smug and get on their high horse dictating from a position that they know nothing truly about.
Why do we have the problems ? because of such like you in fact.
Why can i go and talk to true full blood Aboriginals and they love me for being direct honest free with them.

I met a full blood Aboriginal here in the city last year or so and he was yelling out in the street across from where i was waiting for the shop to open. so i went over to him and talked for hours and we got on so well, he said where he came from and was spun out that i knew the place, i know it well because i ride my dirt bike out their. Look he was having issues ! but he was in a pickle and i could talk to him on issues that most white people would have a spack attack on mentioning but this bloke was fine with all that because he was not stupid as he knew where i was coming from.
The next 2 weeks i seen him again as my wife and i were walking into the Church car park and we talked again.

It's like talking to people who live on the Land and you have some city person with you and it's like they are way out of tune having no idea, but in contempt ! for they think they know it all and that the one on the land is not worthy of a city person and the city person has no true regard of anyone outside of their little plastic world, so when it comes to people out on the Land or True Aboriginals the city person is way out of their depths in fact.
I have had my city mates bag my country mates as if they were a nothing ! but my country mates are much brighter than they could even fathom in reality.

I do not do the blessing, only God does that in fact.
But i do call out lies and deceptions when i see them, why because in my job only reality counts, i do not go about trying to be nice ? for that can create a trap ! Be open i say and do not suffer fools gladly.
Things that i have displeasure in, should be aired and not Kept under wraps. For hiding ones real face is an abomination that leads one astray or down the wrong track.
I may ask others what they think be it what ever, even out on out back bush tracks riding miles for nowhere, but i always keep true to myself and do not go with the flow regarding their maybes, so it's like you lot do not know where you truly are at, but i will ride about a bit more and i will find my bearings on that point and then understand where i am. i have had people in the Defense force lost looking at their Sat map and i have had to say look do't worry about that crap, if i have lead them, but they like to plot the points. so if they come out they have something to go by.

The glass is where it's at regardless i have found.

Sadly most people look at all the other people as a plastic issue, because they are to shallow to bother to understand the reality's, so it's superficial subject that lacks depth and they are content with that, because ignorance is bliss.

Ah! Reggie, I am dropping out of this conversation. You are agro about many things and accuse me of being ignorant, yet we have never formally met to form an opinion about each other.

You are doing what you accuse others of doing out of your ignorance's about me.

Have a good day now and rest peacefully in your own ignorance about who I am in my reality.

I want to go to Asian countries at first
They are interesting. Architecture, culture, alot have beautiful tropical scenery. Most have a way of life far removed from modern countries.

I visited Thailand, Japan, Indonesia (Java and Bali), Singapore, Malaysia including Island of Borneo, and Hong Kong.

One of my favorite vacations was when we as a family of boys and father took a sea plane trip up to Canada in the deep woods. We stayed in a cabin and fished for rainbow trout. The fish was so tasty that I just really enjoyed eating it and being in such a peaceful place.

Here's a picture of something like where I stayed:
