In the year I was born, the World population was below 3.5 billion. In just my lifetime, that's more than doubled.
The English city where I met my wife, Coventry, has about 450,000 whereas the whole of Tasmania has only about 550,000.
These were just a couple of stats that I became aware of in the past day or two as my road trip round Tasmania comes to an end.
Sobering thoughts to head back to work with.

I have two adult children and I’ll probably never be a grandma for various reasons and I’m totally fine with that!

Went to town to finish off my Christmas gift shopping... Wish I hadn't bothered! Feel absolutely frazzled! This is the second time this week I've need to lie down in a dark room! 😵💫

“Creating challenges”… do ya think? Just when I think there’s a modicum of hope, I’m reminded that, as a species, humans suck. #population #OverPopulation #TooManyPeople

New snow shovels & a snow pusher have been purchased.
That should ward off winter storms for a few weeks, at least.
Today I relearned that visiting non-food retailers between Halloween & the New Year is equally hazardous to the wallet & hard on the nerves.
But hey, I finally have yard ornaments for the new house 3 yrs after moving in, so that's a win, kinda?
