The Republic of Stockon welcomes visitors. Fortunately ease of access and lack of spectators limits the numbers.
Gotta laugh about the sharks - it is riddled with them but you would think that a surfer would have been taken by now. And yes there are no fences. Great whites travel between Australia and South Africa, California and Hawaii. Perhaps they do a detour passed Nobby's?
The mutton birds come from way North of Japan every year. They live up to thirty years but by the time they get down here they are well rooted and a lot die of exhaustion. When they forage for food for their chicks they can travel up to 15,000 k's in three weeks so the trip down here must be something else.
Anything else you want to know I am your man. Since Laurie shut down the conspiracy threads I shall have to amuse myself elsewhere.
