Food
In the first few years of the colony there was not a lot of food available. Crops did not grow and the colony relied heavily on supplies coming from England.
Government employed convicts were given a set ration of 3kg beef, 3kg flour, 1.3kg maize meal and 0.9 kg of sugar per week. They were also given tea. Fresh vegetables were uncommon. Women convicts were given less rations, as their work was often not as physical.
Convicts who worked for free settlers were expected to be fed by their master.
Punishment & rewards
A convict could be flogged with the cat-o-nine tails for crimes like swearing, a poor attitude, being drunk as well as stealing small items. Convicts who ran way from their work were often sentenced to work in leg irons for at least 6 months and up to 3 years. These leg irons could only be put on or taken off by a blacksmith. If the crime was really serious, they might be sent to harsh penal colonies in Port Macquarie, Newcastle or Norfolk Island.
No mention of Burgers.
The poms were geniuses.
Sentenced poor slobs who stole bread to Australia, compared to England that is paradise.
Get pissed in Austalia and they sent you here
