“She flushed, and her brown eyes drooped.” Harpers Monthly Magazine, 1892, London.

Don’t revisit this awkward Victorian moment 125 years ago! Remember to discover a treasure before 12:30pm every Sunday to avoid disappointment!

ANNOUNCEMENT: It is time for some fantastic news!
Lockdown, lockdown, lockdown.
Following the State Government COVID19 lockdown extension, the Camberwell Sunday Market will be temporarily closed during October 2021.
While you can ‘t call and collect the sensory experience of the Camberwell Market, don’t forget that many local businesses are still here to serve you! #Repost @camberwellshopping

MARKET CLOSED SEPTEMBER 5, 12 & 19, 2021
Holden (GMH) promotional watch from the late 1990’s, water resistant to 30m. Classic gold/bronze rotating dial helps give a tough look with brown leather wrist band. Like all great discoveries at the Market, someone has personalised it with a #Y2K metallic sticker on the back. Most people under 30 years probably have no idea what the sticker represents. We can only surmise, but it’s probably ‘joke’ by the original owner. The metallic Y2K stickers were common asset tags in big businesses, especially in the panic of 1999. With the Y2K bug set to cause planes to fall out of the sky, dams to open and any matter of digital failure as the clock ticked over from 11:59:59pm 1999 to 12:00:00am in 2000, any thing could have happened. Originally computers were never to go past 1999 and fear was rife the digital systems around the world would collapse as the machine went from 1999 back to 1900 on the stroke on midnight for the year 2000. Would ATMs work, would the trains stop? The Y2K Bug created a massive IT industry as the work rushed to avoid a calamity. Computers that were upgraded to be Y2K compliant were often tagged with stickers similar to this to indicate it had been tested. Hence the probable joke… the watch is analogue and therefore always was Y2K compliant. Any, time proved that Holden would be effectively dead within 20 years and very problems occurred anywhere on that New Years Eve. Speaking of time, it’s never too late to remind everyone we will be closed again on Sunday 29 August 2021 due to the #Covid19vic health orders. Stay tuned to social media and our website for updates on the trading the following week.
It’s a sensational Sunday - great for permitted exercise or shopping! If you live within a 5km radius, why not treat yourself and help a local small business, be that a coffee, Choc Açaí Bowl or other local trader within your 5km radius. With a smile (seen with your eyes over a mask!), an extra little support can make all the difference. But make sure you are complying with Victorian #Covid19vic health restrictions and have a great Sunday, albeit limited, but doing the right thing by the community. #staysafe
