Tasmanian...wow, nearly 4 years here. I'll be a local if I stay another 20 years 😄. Prefer animals to people, and games over anything serious. Tasmanian Chess Champion 2023/24 and 2026

In Campbell Town, central Tasmania, they have a statue of Elizabeth Furlong. She was part of a farming dynasty that helped introduce Merino sheep to Australia.
I like the way the town commemorate socio economic achievement rather than politico military like so many do.
And it's good that the woman of the family gets recognition rather than being erased and eclipsed by her male relatives.
