    aircon wasn’t as common back then

    ^ OP thinking 20-years ago was the 1960’s. ;)

      Maybe it is an Australian thing?

      In 2009 the school I went to got aircon

      I have lived in very few houses that have had aircon, if they did it was evaporative and near useless. The house I am currently in is getting aircon installed next week.

      It might be hot in Australia, but mainly we just built houses with insolation and fly screens.
