QUEEN'S BIRTHDAY
Rather confusing, because the Queen's birthday holiday is celebrated in June (September in Western Australia). Australia Day is also commemorated on a stamp, but this is issued in January.

QUESTION 16

Approximately how many stamps were printed in Australia in 2006 (to nearest 50 million)?


BTW- we'll have a toilet break (at) question 20 for 3 minutes!
