It's Curtains!

A politician awoke in a hospital bed after a complicated
operation and found that the curtains were drawn around him.

"Why are the curtains closed," he said. "Is it night?"
A nurse replied, "No, it's just that there's a fire at the
empty warehouse across the street,
and we didn't want you waking up and thinking
that the operation was unsuccessful."
 
1848 Edmund Kennedy reached Weymouth Bay, North QLD. after leaving Van Demons Land in 1818 heading north looking for Monotony Bay. It was discovered in 1830 that his orders had a misprint and it should have read Botany Bay. His last known whereabouts was in Hudson Bay, Canada. He hopes to be home by Christmas. (Year not specified)

My apologies to Edmund Kennedy, great explorer, I'm sure he is having a good chuckle.

Hi, I am sure it is a spelling mistake by accident. It is actually Van Diemans land.
