    ... if i lived in Daylesford i would be 20kilo's heavier because i would never be able to leave the Chocolate Mill there

    (Daylesford is only 30mins up the road from us)

    So true..way to many yummy places to eat. Last time I went was for a indulgent long weekend with DH a few years ago, needless to say I came back a few kilos heavier
    Love it up there though...epecially the vintage/antiques market

    Come join me in New Gisborne. So close to the station, and an easy ride in to town by train. Any getting on in Gisborne means that you still get a seat!
    I LOVE it here. and I come from Outer East Melbourne. (which I also love outer East Melbourne) It is just much easier to get into the city if you work there. i have made some lovely friends here.
    DOWNSIDE is that it is F$#*ing COLD!

    oh... I didn't realise that your DH would still have to commute, W'bool is a little too far for that!

    RainbowRaver, thanks for the encouragement! I love visiting W'bool but am very tied to my inner city home at the moment. ...still you never know...!

    Healesville is gorgeous. Whittlesea is a nice spot too, on the very far edges of surburbia with the rolling hills of Kinglake behind you. St Andrews and Strathewen are beautiful, but I'm biased because I spent my teenage years growing up there :P

    Ditch the job or transfer and go to Bairnsdale! I love that area - my parents live in Nicholson and it's so nice
    South Gipp would be nice if you didn't have that baggage!
    Torquay? Hastings? Somerville?
    Kilmore is a good commuting distance and an easy drive to Benders, Shep or Echuca, as well as Melb, and on a train line (isn't it?).
    Healesville is ace.
    Gembrook is lovely - mountain air and commutable distance. Pakenham Upper, also.
    We've made our change to Sth Gipp (well, half way there - have the block, just need a caravan so we can join our steers!)
