Hi!

Julie, you're strawbale house sounds fantastic!! I would love to build one but I think we'll go for a plain old brick veneer.....Dh has decided he wants to look at what existing houses are already up for sale but I'm pretty sure we'll end up building as what we'd want would be out of our price range.....

I'm just so excited - we'll have boating, motorbikes, Mt buller in winter, some animals a big veggie garden and of course just the general lifestyle!

Yep, we'll have to travel about 20-30min for the shops and schools and things but I think if you go into it open to that then it won't be a problem. I'm also open to travelling back to Melb regularly to get anything we need (and to visit my family) I think it will be so exciting for Louis as he grows up!!!!
