Penguins fishing :-)

Nuns are definitely enjoying their fishing day out. Although in full uniform they are smiling, standing in shallow water, and waiting for their catch.

The 1851 and 1861 census documents from England make this clear. He was a seaman who arrived in Sydney in February 1864 aboard the Castle Howard from England under the assumed name Samuel Riley.

He was charged with desertion, convicted, and spent 14 days in gaol. Riley worked as a seaman on ships between Sydney and China before settling in Queensland in about 1869 under the name Reilly. He worked as a mariner on coastal ships between Sydney and Cooktown. In April 1875 at Maryborough, he married Emily Compton - from Middlesex England - who had arrived in Maryborough aboard the Glamorganshire on 3 May 1874 (aged 20), accompanied by her sister Amelia (26) - also from Middlesex England.

The southern Gold Coast's famous sandy beaches and world-class surf breaks conclude at Coolangatta, renowned for its casual beach-side culture. Named after the schooner Coolangatta which was wrecked here in 1846, this suburb exudes an old-school beachside charm. It combines this with oceanfront accommodation, cafes, restaurants and clubs. Flock to Coolangatta for retro festivals and, due to the summer time difference with Tweed Heads, celebrate New Year’s twice. Now that’s a good resolution.
