Fun facts! Great!
Without looking it up and cheating, I'll guess 900 spider species.
I can imagine the early settlers drinking so much. There was not much to do back then, and if you read historys of the early settlers, they were often arrested for being drunk, men AND women.
Can I pinch that aussie shaped flag for my blog???
I dont have a clue but given I fear them so I will say 2400 because it sure as hell seems like it!
I am absolutely not shocked that they drank that much!! Infact, have times really changed? Hah!
My guess.... 1500. I could google, but cant be bothered heh!
They had to drink heaps - the water was a killer - not much fresh stuff around - and paid in rum - plleaasse what does one expect ...
Spiders - well I'm going with 400 - and all of them live in Queensland bar the nasty trap doors which Sydney can have - hugs le
mmm, i'm going to go 2400. I hate spiders!
I'm with Dee on 900... so loving this blog Lou!
Good guessing everyone! The answer is....
1500!
Congrats Jan!!!
Another silly fact to come next Sunday... :)
p.s. yes Dee, take the flag. I'll email you where I got it from.
