I have to give him thumbs up becuase he and I were born in the same city. He is our most famous local boy.
Some points of interest
Errol went to Hobart High School, a school my father attended years after Errol.
Errol lived in a house in Darcy Street (no 10) , I lived in Darcy Strret (no 24) from when I was 7 until I was 18.
Errol learnt to swim at Short Beach (now renamed the Errol Flynn Reserve). This beach is located at the end of the street I lived in for the first 7 years of my life.
Errol is reputed to have lost his virginity in the carpark of the Hobart City Council. Some have suggested that a plaque should be placed there to honour this fact, but others have said the tourists such a plaque would being would impede traffic in and out of the carpark.

^ I was hoping you would turn up for this thread. It was why I specifically mentioned Hobart in my bio! 
Interesting about the car park. And actually, given Errol Flynn's later exploits, a plaque would be rather fitting, I think!

It would probably be stolen on a weekly basis. 
^ Yeah. You definitely have a point there.
As a collector of Flynn memorabilia, I might even be tempted myself.
