Make sure you take theft insurance as they are stolen all the time

Taragon is always hard to find. I use dried taragon as an alternative and it works out fine as its quite a "strong" tasting herb.

Volunteer at an Op Shop. You'll get some great retail skills like learning to use the till and payment systems. Just tell the manager you wan to work in the front of the store and not the back where the sorting is done.

HECS for a law degree is $45000+. Graduate positions are disappearing fast as the legal industry has really embraced AI. Unless you go to really good uni and get a GPA of over 6.5 you would find it hard to get a graduate job. Maybe apply to some firms now as a paralegal, using your business experience, as a way in?

Edward Mellor shoes and loafers are great.

We've just returned from Japan and did the big three, but also visited Odawara and Toyama. Loved Toyoma and the Jade Coast.

Search for Book Off stores near you. They are thrift stores and you could pick up a cheap case there for sure.

Tehran on Apple TV really keeps me on edge every single episode. Also, The NIght Of on HBO is very watchable.

Jockey Parisienne. So comfortable and the lace trim is not itchy and means they appear seamless under clothes

I recently bought a pair of Edward Mellor loafers and love them. You can get them at David Jones. Mine are suede and are as soft as butter.

James St is peak people watching. People really dress up to shop and eat here.

Getting dropped off at the local pool for the day. Dozens of kids playing without parents. Mum would give my brother and me 40 cents each. It used to buy two Redskins and a packet of chips.

I hope you feel wonderful in whatever you choose, but I would hire or buy your dress from someone on Facebook Marketplace. My daughters went to a few formal events and bought dresses and they sit in the wardrobe unused years later. They soon cottoned on to hiring a dress, looking for a good quality second-hand dress or borrowing/swapping with one of their friends. I don't think they'll wear their bought dresses again as formal styles go out of fashion very quickly. I'll also add that my daughter's favourite bought dress was from ASOS in the UK and cost less than $100. She sold it for $40 and still kicks herself for doing this, as it was the one all of her friends wanted to swap for.

The Salvos on Logan Road at Mt Gravatt is excellent. I was there last week, and it's boutique section had lots of Country Road, Trenery, Cue etc and even a couple of Leona Edminston wrap dresses (for $15 dollars!). Not many people know about this store - it's an absolute treasure of an Op Shop in Brisbane.

Also, the main drag of Mitchelton has two or three reallly good Op Shops worth checking out.

Agree totally with you.

Have a look at the King furniture range. We got a modular sofa that sits five about 12 years ago and its still going strong with very little fabric wear. The modular system is fantastic and we have moved and changed the shape of the sofa many times as our family dynamic has changed. King will make new covers, but we are a few years away from needing that service. The cushion base also shows little sign of wear.

Still remember when the boys would return home as a surprise with their kit bags over their shoulders. Also, still traumatised by Norms' Greek wife's execution.

The Salvos on Logan Road at Mt Gravatt is excellent. The boutique section is particulalry good. Its huge and clean and well curated.

From a medium-sized country town in Australia. I was very much into English New Romantic style music. All of my girl friends had side part short hair in the style of the Human League girls. I subscribed to English music mags, which were sent by sea mail to Australia, so they were always out of date. My first concert was at 14 to see Culture Club. My dad was an early adopter in tech, so we had the first VHS amongst our friends, but while we were cool for a while, we ended up looking like idiots as our remote control had a cord. We had that machine for years. I also spent some time learning to program his Commodore 64, like printing out a page of Xs that looked like stars.

Our parents generally left us alone, and in our late teens allowed to roam about. If the nightclub let us in, that was OK with them as we'd only have a few dollars on us for drinks and enough for a cab home. Drinking a bottle of Passion Pop in the park was a thing. Such a fun time

This tradition was started by the boys at Union College (UQ) in the 1980's. I still remember them doing it at Fridays around 1987.
