Death is the termination of the biological functions that sustain a living organism. The word refers both to the particular processes of life's cessation as well as to the condition or state of a formerly living body. Phenomena which commonly bring about death include predation, malnutrition, accidents resulting in terminal injury, and disease. The nature of death has been for millennia a central concern of the world's religious traditions and of philosophical enquiry...
I'm an American but I would be damn proud to be an Australian. I love Oz, its people, its flora, its fauna, all it has been, all it is and all it stands for! Oz: I salute you, respect you, admire you and I am damn proud of you, I will always support and speak most highly of you and most of all I LOVE YOU!
I know an old coal miner who worked at the Redhead mine in Newcastle and that mine went under the Pacific Ocean and because of that they were always up to their waste in water.
And this bloke Dick was his first name said that when they were eating their lunch they could hear rocks falling from the roof and so when ever this would happen Dick would call out the Mullet are jumping again! to much laughter.
Thank firecrackers for people like you. My sister is doing our family tree but that only deals with dates. Articles about the actual experience are hard to come by. Mate, please, write a comprehensive book. Your knowledge is worth more than petrol!!! You are doing the world a service and I would love to meet you. I think the numbers of people keeping early Australia are fading, it truly saddens me. The newer generations are so Americanised, they are missing so much.
G'day mate, I'm so glad theres still fellas around like yourself that one know this history,two have the talent to sing the song and three are prepared to share with us. Thankyou Warren from one proud Aussie to another.
Glad to see and hear someone out there keeping these stories and tunes alive, thanks Warren for keeping the flame burning, especially the tales of the underdogs and rebels of early Australia, that spirit is an important element of the Australian character that should not be forgotten. I will be giving a talk next week on Australian folklore, here in Ireland, so this is inspiring material for me.
I'm American and I saw the film Ned Kelly a couple of years ago. I think its a brilliant film and I found out who Ned Kelly was because of it. I've memorized Moreton Bay and can sing it by heart. I don't know if anyone really cares about what an American has to say but, this song is incredible and Ned Kelly and his gang were incredible as well.
Wow mate i gotta say you have bought back many memories of primary school and studying about the history of NSW good see our Australian history will live on.

I think the tune is "Boulavogue", an old Irish song concerning the Irish Rising of 1798. I've never heard this version before but it's a good 'n!
