[attachment=0]welling1.png[/attachment]Hope your well, we are here it's damn hot and humid, gonna kill someone soon.

We have just been to Tasmania for a weeks break very nice, got to see whales a few metres away from the little boat we were in getting tossed around on 5 metre swells I was scared, was where the Southern Ocean meets the Tasman sea, the Sydney to Hobart yacht race begins there.
All the Chinese and indians were puking couple of the aussies too, only a few of us left standing proudly Hagai I and were feeling ok.
Anyway we went to port Arthur where the Brits would send the convicts the worst offenders apparently, about the period 1830 I think only 2000 prisoners went there and of course I managed to find just two names , I have a feeling Wellings is a name from your family carol.Feel free to adopt poor Charles, apparently he had red hair and blue eyes for some more info. I also found someone with the surname Ray, our mothers family, can't make up our mind whether he looks like Paul or Michael hehe
