Maybe your stamps are on the table next to the birthday card you forgot to send.

Or in that random drawer full of pens, pennies and paperclips.

Or stuck to your fridge behind a do-list and a magnet from Malaga.

Or maybe just maybe, then neatly placed in a completely sensible spot.

After the 31st of January 2023, regular stamps without a barcode will no longer be valid.

So if you know where your old ones are, this is your last chance to use them up.

Or you can swap them.

I'm John Batchler welcoming Jeremy Zakis and New South Wales.

We've followed the La Nina events this last year, the overwhelming rain,

and then now that it's summertime in the Southern Hemisphere.

The snow and the cooler temperatures throughout New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland

through springtime.

And now, making up for those cooler temperatures is a heat wave.

It's a little hard to imagine.

I've been in 40 degrees centigrade in the Dead Sea Valley,

but this is 48 degrees centigrade.

Jeremy, a very good evening to you.

First, let's establish that you're okay in New South Wales.

What are your temperatures now this weekend?

You know, John, yes, I can say we are all okay here at the moment.
