Australian Trivia Only

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

In anticipation of being awarded the gold medal for that rapid response, ;) here's the next question, in two parts (have to get both right for a win):

1. What was the full name of Australia's third Prime Minister?
(I will accept either his name at birth or his step-father's surname when elected)
2. There were two features about him which were unique. What were they?
(apart from the fact his mother remarried... that's not unique)

Just read that in Mr Yahoo but was not going to answer. Only use that or Mr Google if I do not know an answer for my own curiosity
