    And he went to Norfolk Island with a different Gypsy Moth. His Gypsy Moth was the first aircraft to land on the island. I recall reading about it when I lived there.

    He also visited Lord Howe Island, unless they got that wrong but may have been at the same time. Obviuosly not at the same time as yours 'cos that would be silly, if not bloody impossible.

    I hope it was a salad then. It couldn't have been pizza, they weren't invented then.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    I wouldn't have thought so either.

    It seems we'd both be wrong.


    1889

    Specifically, baker Raffaele Esposito from Naples is often given credit for making the first such pizza pie. Historians note, however, that street vendors in Naples sold flatbreads with toppings for many years before then. Legend has it that Italian King Umberto I and Queen Margherita visited Naples in 1889.

    Nah, I remember it well. First Pizza Hut opened in Queensland was at Annerley in 1973. I was a frequent flier.

    I'm way too old and innocent to remember those times accurately.. The Army didn't use hammocks, and any lumps in my groundsheet were usually rocks, sadly..
