    Dude, I was born the same weekend as the first Adelaide GP, just down the road at Women's and Children's, so it broke my heart when it was STOLEN by Victoria. I'm glad I'm not the only one who is still slightly bitter about that.

    I had to get a replacement VHS player from Soundair (sounds good to me) down the end of my street. Turned out it could record double the length of the tape. I would set the tape to record Conan O'brien as it was on too late and ended up with hours of other shows. I don't have any VHS now as they all went in the bin when I moved

    That Blu-tack ad sent a "ohhhhhhh" through me when that reveal happened.
    That said, I know the scandals with Rolf were still in the closet at the time, but was he still popular enough in 1996 (in Australia) to warrant a poster?
    Also, I think I got a hot take to counter yours. I get the impression the woman fell down the stairs because she mistimed her step. Compromised vision can mess with depth perception.
    I was 6 1/2 during that time but the Ostrich thing is news to me!

    14:24 In WA at least, all contractors are supposed to switch off the power to the house before entering the roof space, regardless of what they have been hired to do in there.
    Sad to say that no contractor has yet done this in my house, which definitely had DIY electrical. Who knows what cowboy electrical work was done? Who knows what metal components may be live and not hooked up to an RCD? Every few years somebody gets fatally electrocuted from this.
    If you are any sort of contractor getting into roof spaces, dont be a fool. Switch off all electrical circuits in the house first. Dont be like Frank.

    I don't know why I love when you take too long explaining why an ad makes no sense, but here we are. Although I'm surprised you don't remember the Ostrich fad, it was rather intense for a moment there.
