Some may have been too quick to judge a 1917 suspicious death because it was the Goondiwindi mother’s son who was the harbinger of death. Follow the link in my profile for the 3rd story in a trilogy, "Harbinger of Death: The Uncanny Life of Victor Bushell." The most chilling Bunyip sighting was reported right here in 1868. Rockhampton dairyfarmer John Carey late one night was approaching this spot where the Old Exchange Hotel stood then when his dogs took off in total fear, and Carey knows what he saw in the dark of night. The team that day was the most amazing representative team ever assembled in any sport. Follow the link on my profile to read and hear the story, "Foden’s Men: The Day the Capital was Conquered." Sonny fires the cannon at New Zealand's National Maritime Museum in Auckland. No ships were sunk in the making of this video. https://www.instagram.com/p/DYEgIFOlKId/ There’s more to the 1917 suspicious death and the policeman who led the investigation. Please follow the link on my profile for the second in a trilogy of stories about this unsolved murder, "The Question that Followed Detective Head." Australia's greatest professional sprinter benefited from a highly profitable sting in the 1880s. Via the link on my profile you can read, like and share the story, "How Jim McGarrigal Outsprinted a Nation." Chris Calcino of ABC loves the #HistoryOutThere story “The Anzac Illusionist of Kalbar” so much that he’s retelling the tale in his own inimitable style this Monday after 4.30pm – so be sure you’re listening on your favourite regional Queensland Local Radio! ABC North Queensland, ABC Capricornia, ABC North West Queensland, ABC Southern Queensland, ABC Western Queensland. I'm here to see a remarkable collection at New Zealand's National Maritime Museum in Auckland, and this anchor was lost from Captain William Bligh's HMS Bounty during her voyage of 1787 when taken over by Fletcher Christian and the other mutineers.
