Ooooooh, thanks Nai! We're going to go for a "day trip" there on Monday because it's ages since I went over there and DP still needs a bit of a nudge that it's a good idea. Yeah, I think Northcote and Yarraville are pretty similar and I do want the same sort of vibe and still be close to town. Where would you recommend for lunch that's pram-friendly and nice but not too exxie?

Now, how easy/hard d'you reckon it would be to find a 4br house to rent? Obviously, I've been having a look online but only for the past week and while there's a few out there, it looks like fairly slim pickings. We could make do with a 3br but a 4br would be much better as DP could fill a whole room just with his train 'stuff' and he's a shiftworker too so having a 'spare' bedroom is handy.
