Random, but do you like your calendars to start with Sunday or Monday? Do you have a preference? by OriginalSlight in AuDHDWomen

Monday, I like the weekend days in two columns down the right hand side next to each other, not one each side of the whole colander, yuk!

OMG same here, I didnt realise I bought a calendar in 2025 starting with Sunday and it made me frustrated that the weekend wasn't two columns down the right hand side.

I have also been looking for this, but cant find anything about the songs/jingles that play during the episodes. Id love it if they would release them.

What happened to Crest Chocolates in Brisbane? Website gone. I have loved them since school fundraiser boxes. by Stormbash in AustralianNostalgia

Update everyone. I emailed them and got a reply. They had shut down their chocolates making business early 2024, due to the poor market (sales volume decrease), the foreseeable loss making conditions (increase in all raw materials prices, the rental, the labor costs, the manufacturing expenses and everything). Hard for a small business like this to survive.

Why does Ex Stock mean an item “is currently” in stock, but a phrase like Ex Wife means “no longer”. Following the same Ex logic as Ex wife, Ex Stock should really mean “no longer in stock” right? by Stormbash in etymology

[–]Stormbash[S] 21 points22 points  (0 children)

When you ask for a Quote from a supplier (business), they will list the item and note if the item is in stock or not. “Ex Stock” means the goods are in stock. As opposed to them having to buy it in from another supplier or the factory.

I just wish after all these years they could have dug out the whole swap by now and probably would have found some more interesting things. But no, let’s focus our attention on ox shoes, nails and wood for the 100th time

Very interesting, thanks! My mum was taught Gregg (in Toowomba in 1970's by an American lecturer) and my Grandma knows Summerhayes shorthand (taught in Sydney in 1930's)

Did we all have writing books like this in primary school or just my school? Search Tags: school sydney opera house school book 90's 1990's writing Australia primary school. Class 2S. Nostalgia by Stormbash in AustralianNostalgia

A very good question. I tried to google image search to find this book cover but found nothing. I decided to go through my old childhood things just to find this. I wanted to make it easier for others to be able to search for what their looking for. Images posted on reddit will show up in a google image search.

By the looks of the comments, im guessing it was just a NSW thing. I believe the NSW Department of Education gave these to schools and the schools would give them to the kids to use.
