A still from an ad for Adelaide-based ‘Dreamland’ bedding store from the early 2000s
A TikTok comment: Anyone know who the actor is from this ad cause he wanted to date my grandma but she was married and now she's divorced and I'm trying to find him HELPPPP
Just got this comment on TikTok. Can anybody loop in the Dreamland guy?

This is good fun. Choose your ABC (Australia) clock, tweak the interference, ghosting etc.
You can even choose when to have the pips.

Finally got a chance to see Callum Preston’s ‘Video Land’ exhibition at Melbourne’s Immigration Museum. Fantastic. I actually found it really hard to leave. It’s still open for a couple more weeks so check it out.

A hardcover book sitting on a wooden tabletop. It’s the ca.1984 Sanitarium cookbook “Australian & New Zealand Vegetarian Cooking For Better Health.” A wide range of fruits, vegetables, nuts and grains are on the cover.
