............indeed there is.......my favourite only 15 minutes away...! ............but one of the perks of the east coast..... .............so much in easy reach.... ............and I second Mures OP...! ............wonderful seafood....

...........a 2 hour 45 minute flight..... ...........about an hour getting to and from airports..... ............if I left now I could easily make it for dinner...... ............with a walk round the harbour first.....

.........don't agree.....! .........all areas have parts that are not nice.... .........but Beerwah has recently had lots of upgrading.... .........parts very pretty..... ..........and Maleny and surrounds such as Mountville ,Flaxton etc are unlikely to have homes in the price bracket the OP has stipulated...

............Landsborough........Glass house.......Woombye....Yandina..... ............depends also what else you need close by..... .............how far from the coast you need.....and major aminities.... .............type in Sunshine Coast hinterlands to realestate.com.... .............then when you find a house you can research the suburb,... ..............good luck...!

............port Arthur....! ............the gardens are amazing.......and an interesting walk back through time.... ............and Richmond........a lovely place with nice antique shops...... .............so many places but perhaps the Cadbury factory if you like chocolate.... ..............Salamanca markets........and fish and chips in Hobart...

..........agree that places are cheap for a reason.... ..........but not that there isn't cheap realestate..... ...........it depends if the reasons are compatible to your lifestyle..... ...........if you don't need large shopping malls... ............restaurants and wine bars..... ............some of the rural towns do offer a pleasant alternative IMO.... ............most little communities do have access to a dr.... .............schools......and basic shopping ime.... ..............its if you need the trimmings......and are prepared to travel for them.... ..............a rural community......has the cheaper options for housing.....

.........I second Tamworth....! .........a large town......with good and varied shopping facilities in the CBD.... .........well known for its country musical festival.......and a great place for equine enthusiasts.... .........lots of schools to choose from......also has a performing arts academy.... ..........and being roughly halfway between Brisbane and Sydney gives you two major cities about an hours flight away... ..........a nice place.....IMO....

...........a lovely idea but as others have said......could be challenging...! ...........perhaps have a look at something like this for your first camp.... ...........even trying out a cabin first.... https://www.big4.com.au ............if you join they often have special deals......and cater for children..... ...........whatever you decide,enjoy......lots of beautiful places to see.....

........but isn't that a natural reaction when we don't want something ,somewhere...? .........the bad in it grows out of proportion.... ..........our reactions to justify our decision fail to see beyond our distrust and dislike ...........it's why often we need someone outside our selves and close ones.... .............to bring a balance an objective view.... ...............often why councillors are a must...... .................good luck OP ....

..........have answered your bold question....! ..........but my experience may not be yours..... ..........only you can make it work....or not....... ..........and who knows what the future holds.....or how we may react to it.....

..........yes.......all my married life..! ..........up to 8 months apart...( when the children were young....) ..........to a regular 2 week on,2 off.... ..........but it's not easy ime..! ..........it's doable if both partners compromise.... ..........you seem sure your partnership is strong..... ..........so perhaps with a visit by you for a agreed time..... ...........will help your other half see how much your prepared to put up with something you so obviously dislike for him.... ...........sometimes you have to give something up to gain something.....a strong relationship.....good luck...

..........there are two types of people who struggle to be completely happy IMO and ime.... ..........those who think and do only for themselves.... .........and those who think and do only for others.... .........life is a balancing act of ourselves and those who share our lives...... ...........I do so hope you find it.....X

..........I would say your anxiety is making this hard.... ..........you feel you can't do right for fear of doing wrong...! ..........sit and write a list of your needs in life.... ..........of the things you want ..........then see which place supplies the most..... ..........be determined to give it your best.......to enjoy it... ..........I wish you good luck......and a happy choice....X

.........that made interesting reading...so glad it was mostly a joy... .........I do think many of us make the mistake of comparing..... .........and looking for memories..... .........when I visit places I have been before I look at it newly... ..........to holiday or live I think we can only look forward..... ..........it's not the place we are..... ..........but where we are in ourselves..... ..........we change......as we adapt to the life we have.... ..........your beginnings will always be special to you......it shaped you.... ..........but so will your life here.... ..........you will settle where most of your needs and wants are now..... ..........life is all about....enjoying the now.....IMO and ime....of course...

........oh for goodness sake PB...! ........for most family's here or there ........most lawns are not like that...! ........and both places......can boast lawns such as that.... ........in homes with the money and or time to maintain such...l

.........I guess when you have experienced other countries..... .........there is so much more to choose from....to consider with family in both.... .........it's down to needs and wants..... .........for all of you..... .........and in family's,sometimes.......someone has to agree to having less met.... .........but I would say the happiness of the family as a whole is the most important thing..... ..........and I wish you luck........a little conversation ,a bit of give and take.....( perhaps as has been said with a councillor) ..........and hopefully a solution that pleases everyone.....

.......brilliant ime ........and a good way to build points

..........many see it as an investment also..... ...........they hold their price..... ...........though personally I can't bear a watch on my wrist....

............I would say a Rolex is good miniature engineering..... ............mine is over 20 years old....... ............never fault ers......though I don't wear it....! .............also have my fathers.......he always wore it.....never a problem with it... ............don't watch the time anymore..... ..............in fact I have a lovely collection of clocks......all saying different times lol.... .............the son has a breightling ,only because it has some bits on he needs for his job..... ..............for those that need a watch.......I would say Rolex has a good reputation for reliability....

..........agree PC.......many don't wear watches anymore.... ..........but we bought the youngest one ,as he needs it for the career he chose.... ..........often best to let the recipient choose ,as so many different ones

..........nice dish of finnan haddock.... ..........with a home made bread spread with butter for the juice..ll! .........though here red empora ......barramundi and snapper are beautiful tasting fish...... ..........don't think there is a haddock substitute TBH....just different but equally tasty alternatives..
