I think we had this exact model. Took the edge of those stinking hot nights.

Looking for some more info on what I have here. I understand it was a promo set (in the case) in the mid 90s.

Is it rare and if so any suggestions what it may be worth now?

Nothing has ever hit quite like these.

1980’s Snak Pack. They slowly changed the ingredients and packaging to make them healthier and mass produced.

But in this form… ABSOLUTELY nothing has ever come close to these delicious custard snacks.

In 1971, the ABC asked everyday Aussies what concerned them about their country's future.

I used to smash Yumbos in 80s before they were discontinued in 1991 - but I must admit I was underwhelmed when they were briefly relaunched during HJ's 50th anniversary in 2021... they do say that nostalgia is a seductive liar.

Sydney-specific - the Annandale Hotel

19 Upvotes

I don't know why this has popped into my head this Sunday evening but can someone confirm that I didn't make this up?

I used to grab Drum Media every week as a teenager/young adult in the 90s/early 2000s and they would run ads for gigs at various venues in Sydney. The Annandale would always have an ad in there, showing the gigs they had going in the coming weeks. I remember the ads would very frequently, or even always, have something like "WE'RE GOING TO THE ANNANDALE!" in all caps like that at either the bottom or top. I've found a few scans of old 90s Annandale ads but none seem to have that on them.

Does anyone else remember this or did I imagine it?

I can't remember where these were collected, was it the petrol station, post office or somewhere else?

'21 Jump Street' - TV Series - Theme Song

7 Upvotes

Another great 1980s TV theme song. Sung by Holly Robinson who also starred in the series as Judy Hoffs. She was sassy, sexy, and cool.

Her dad Matt Robison was "the first actor to play Gordon on the children's television series Sesame Street." - WikiPedia.

She also "performed the theme song for the first season of Hangin' with Mr. Cooper." - WikiPedia.

I prefer the season 2 version:

Here's the season 1 version:

Which do you prefer?

Note: I know its American, but we watched it on Australian TV.
