  1. Whoring.  Whoring was a big thing.  I suppose this could count for both jobs and entertainment.


  2. That was when the colony of NSW was first founded.   Then there was very little food of any sort.  As for entertainment you could allways watch the flogging of the convicts or worse and the only sport then was trying to catch a feed in the bush.

  3. Food - traditional english foods - beef, lamb, bread in fact the first fleet nearly starved because they dind't know how to farm and wouldn't learn to eat the food the aborigines had

    Jobs - mostly convicts, the rest soldiers, very few free settlers

    Entertainment - mostly drinking
