Hobart

"Last week, the Launceston General Hospital (LGH) hit the headlines for the wrong reasons, yet again.

Tasmania's second-largest hospital being on the receiving end of a damning assessment by one of the state's coroners has become a depressingly familiar phenomenon.

This time the LGH earnt the ire of Coroner Simon Cooper for "substandard" medical records that potentially compromised a patient's treatment.

It's the latest in a long list of withering critiques of the hospital, including from staff working within it.

A look back at coronial findings handed down since 2017 reveals eight of them have been critical of the LGH."

Even the cost of living crisis has hit hoons.

They're finally getting around to removing the grave robber's statue. It's been talked about for years and I didn't think it would really happen. Today is a good day.

Melbourne may have won last year but Tas is coming for you again this year.

8,000 is now considered "massive" apparently. When we have a 20k capacity stadium just across the river. The AFL gaslighting isn't going to end anytime soon I see.

Normally you'd expect something more substantial to base a beach closure off but this is Hobart.

Good for short stay owners, sucks for renters.

"$2.6 million isn't actually a lot of money in this setting given our house prices have exploded," she said.

For people in other states tuning in, Hobart house prices haven't exploded that much.

Probably too late for any last minute plans but how many of you are planning to come down for the FoV?

Happy to volunteer to be a mod. Hobart local, pretty easy going. Not planning on power tripping and ruling with an iron fist. Happy to have an inclusive community.

Someone find a suitable community icon please. Something that is recognisably Hobart-y.

Post it here and I'll set it for the community for all to see.

I am new to Hobart and Tasmania (moved down last year - don't hold it against me) and this is my first Dark mofo.

Way too late for the ticketed stuff - but I wouldn't know what it all was anyway.

What is some of the good public stuff that can be seen?
