    It's considered as a joke! I think King Leonard died, or was that his wife (I think Queen Shirley). No-one got really angry with him- he issued his own stamps and made laws for his principality which...

  3. Re: Good news -- The Tasmanian Tiger is no longer extinct !

    Re: UFO Activity and HMAS Hobart

    This is really interesting, and I have never heard of it before. Is there more information regarding these 'enemy helicopters"? They seem to be hostile/enemy-- but were they helicopters?

    Re: Rockwall, Texas

    This i fascinating because it is so 'unknown' in spite of the fact the place is named after the feature.

  15. Re: Theresa May to succeed Cameron as UK PM on Weds 13 July 2016
