Kate and I are sitting on the granite boulders on the banks of Reedy Creek in the Mt Pilot National Park enjoying a few beers and the quiz. 15/25 we've both read about the expedition many years ago. I'm certain if it wasn't for Kate's insistence on some questions we would have fared better :eek: :( :lol: :beer:
 
15/25 I only reread " Starvation in a land of plenty" about 2 months back but have not read the book these questions are taken from. Bit annoyed the question you had to write the answer in I had charles instead of charley. They starved to death in an area that had plenty of migratory rats at the time and plenty of fish , they had fish hooks but didn't fish as it is believed that an officer & a gentleman didn't lower themselves to fish, you had workers to do that. Bloody stubborn or what. the book I read is a little contradictory in some areas.
 
Hardship I hope to never endure, and I feel lucky to have got this score :argh:
