The turf colonies were what Australia was to the English. He had been arrested for the third time for vagrancy so they wanted to get him out of the way. He did die in the Hague (family grounds on my paternal grandfather's side) so he did return at one point. The Hague has always been notorious for rioters (it's where the government is located), so he was probably being angry over his poverty.

There are a few books which mention my family members: the most notable instance was Franciscus Lodewijk Ploeg, whose rioting was mentioned in a book about the neighborhood he lived in. He was sent to the turf colonies in the north-east of The Netherlands as punishment. We know a lot about him, such as the length of his ears.


a) What was he rioting about?
b) Was he rioting solo?
c) What are the turf colonies?
d) How big were his ears, then?



Wrong questions Caputh...

1) Do you have pictures of your Cousins?
2) Who was doing what with who?
3) Do you have any pictures (it is BB)
4) In the US they all get paid a weekly rate and if you win or come second that is added on, no money on Dutch Big Brother 5?

YouTube for Big Brother 5 Nederland and you'll get all the footage you'd ever want to see. Including Monique puking in the bathroom.

For the BB-fans: TM2's Nigel makes a cameo appearance in this comic I made in my final school year!
The character name lists were based off the 90210 show I never watched anyway. One of the characters is Dr John Martin: I decided to change his first name into that of another "icon" of the day.
