    Australian Book Trilogy Recommendation:

    KIDS NIGHT IN (2003, 2005, 2009)

    A collection of bedtime stories, rainy-day jokes, holiday reads, funny cartoons, cool art, recipes, and tips from celebrities and sports stars. All writers and illustrators are Australian.

    Loved the first one (700 pages), haven't read the second or third one (500)

    Checkout the opening post!!!
    I must be confused or something about the holiday thingy. September holidays is like Spring break for the Americans (but it lasts for about 2 weeks I think). December - January is the summer holidays (it lasts for a month) ๐Ÿค”.

    Anyways apart from that, September holidays are in a week for me. But I usually get 2 days early off due to it being the last 2 days of week 10 (sometimes I get 3 days off early but I canโ€™t this term). Next term due to February being short or something I get 11 weeks of school instead of 10 ๐Ÿ˜ญ.

    Yeah, I saw the opening post it looks good ๐Ÿ‘

    Then why "School's nearly out for summer" when December is three months away?

    I don't know, really. I could just search it up and lie but that sux.

    You're right about the direct rays.

    The correct answer is the Earth is closer to the sun during your (Southern Hemisphere) summer. That makes the Earth closer
    to the sun during our winter. It would be little more brutal here if it was reversed like your part of the hemisphere.
    Damn I got confused

    If you're in Australia, here's some links to Australian (FREE) streaming service

    https://10play.com.au - If you Aussie, there's a few Paramount/Viacom owned channels (10Bold, 10Peach, 10Shake, 10News) and if you wanna watch anything from there, this is the spot.

    https://iview.abc.net.au/ - ABC iView, I love this app. Most ABC Kids / ABC Me shows come from other companies (BBC, Nickelodeon).. and most of the shows aired on ABC Kids / Me are actually produced by the ABC. LazyTown's not on here anymore considering they don't own the Aussie rights anymore.. but.. uh.

    https://www.sbs.com.au/ondemand - Airs a bunch of movies and shows and stuff, but screw that! The highlight is SBS on Demand having Jackie Chan movies - Drunken Master (removed, returns after the TV channel SBS World Movies airs it again), Young Master, Project A, Wheels on Meals, Police Story, Armour of God, Project A Part II, Police Story Part II, Armour of God II: Operation Condor, Drunken Master II (also removed, returns after World Movies airs it again), Rumble in The Bronx (removed, and I hope it stays removed, because it's one of Chan's worst), 1911, Bleeding Steel, Ride On.

    Also has the Hong Kong Lee films - The Big Boss / Fists of Fury, Fist of Fury / The Chinese Connection, The Way of the Dragon / Return of the Dragon & Game of Death.

    https://7plus.com.au/ - Airs everything 7 channels play.
