[edit] Removed category
Removed Penal colony catergory, Botany bay was unsutable as a penal settlement. This article is however important and needs work. Ghostieguide 01:17, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] First Fleet arrival section
In this section is states that the first fleet were panicked by the arrival of the possibility of the French beating them to it and so set sail that afternoon. I was under the impression that the first fleet had already set sail anyway and the French just happened by coincidence to arrive at that time. Does anyone have better information on this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.124.16.33 (talk) 12:04, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
