Unless you have been living under a rock or in a medically induced coma for the last 12 months, you would know that 2020 was not the best year. (Horrendous understatement, I know).
Despite the global pandemic, a US presidential election campaign that was interesting to say the least and the wildfires that swept Australia, it was a year that will go into the history books as one of the worst in living memory.
