And a little about the newspaper wrapping... Last month it was decided that the crumbling sixties lino in our front room needed to be disposed of, and on ripping it up we discovered the whole floor was lined with Sydney newspapers from 1965! Everything from pre-moon landing NASA missions, to vietnam war foreign policy debates, to illustrated Grace Bros and LOWES advertisements. So I thought it would be fun to give you all a small sample to complement your compilation.

Looking forward to the next one!
